Hello everyone. New guy here (obviously). And I'm looking for some advice about getting an e-ink device.

I've used a Nook HD+ for a couple years and recently my phone for reading my ebooks but I'm just tired of the battery life being so bad compared to an e-ink. Don't get me wrong, I love my Nook HD+, its just that its so big, it doesn't lend itself well for when I travel, so getting something in the 6" screen size thats lighter is very appealing. So I'm trying to make that jump, but from what I've been reading, it doesn't look like its easy to decide which device will work best for me.

I have a lot of side loaded books (some almost 10MB in size, others about 0.1 MB). I was going to get the Nook Glowlight Plus, but I keep hearing that space available for side loaded content is either 500 MB or 214MB....if true, not enough for me. But I don't even know if that is true.

Then I thought about getting a Kindle Paperwhite, but I've heard stories very similiar to the NGP in regards to storage size....

Then I heard about the Kobo Glo HD...and I've been told that of the 4 Gigs of space, about 3 GB are usuable for side loaded stuff, plus its supposed to have an SD card slot (hey, more space sounds good!).

I really wanted to stay in the Nook hemisphere but lack of space is a non starter. I also wanted a device that had back light for dark reading.

Can you guys give me any advice on which device would be best for me? I see that a lot of sites are doing sales this weekend so I guess I'd better strike while the sales are hot.

Thanks in advance for y'alls help!
