If KA1 uses LEDs, then this feature of nickel to put reader in sleep except for IR this means it uses much more battery than H2O.
Anyone who mentions (s)he has problems with battery should mention if LEDs are on or off while reading.

When the KA1 is asleep, the light should be off. Also, the IR sensors should also be off. Why do you think the light and IR are both on?
