Hmmm...I ordered two Aura Ones (one for me, one as a gift). They both arrived together. When I turned on the first one, it wouldn't update because the battery was at 4%. Several of my previous Kobo ereaders had arrived with the battery between 40% and 50%, so this was unusual. When I turned on the second one, the battery was at 43% and it updated to the new firmware immediately. For what it's worth, it seems that something is going on with the battery in some units.

ETA: I put PeriodicAutoSync=false in both .conf files, and so far there have been no further issues with battery drain. Both readers are holding a charge after 24 hours.
