If you want sympathy for a problem, that is not the way to start

I never charge my reader using a wall charger. I always use my PC.
It started draining fast after I used a wall charger. It drained normally after I had it attached to my tablet. The same for the second time. So, when we were almost at our destination, I decided to charge the reader a last time (using the wall charger) and then simply connect it to my tablet, just to connect. It now drains normally again.
When you charge using the PC, do you always let it connect to the PC? And did the wall charger prompt you about this? That's the only difference I can think of, whether the device actually connected to the PC or not. When it does, a process is on the device run to unmount and mount the drive. And it doesn't different things if you say no to the connection. All this could have different affects afterwards.
