On the other hand, if for some reason the "automatic sync" feature is enabled, you will wake up with your Kobo's battery mysteriously drained. That's because even when the device looks like it's in standby, it's still attempting to sync and the wifi eats the battery within a few short hours.
I turned off wi-fi and automatic sync is off and my Kobo still drained overnight.
