But I need sympathy! The trip is over and it's only 4 degrees celcius here, instead of the 24-28 over there

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.

I usually connect my reader to my PC, put any new books on it, then disconnect (leaving the reader connected to the PC). That way any re-indexation that will take place will not drain the battery. After that, I'll usually just leave the reader connected to the PC until it's full.
The wall charger didn't give any messages (only one wall charger at home does that), it just started charging. After a few hours, I disconnected and a few hours later it was empty. So, the second time, again no connection message, full charge, connect to my tablet for a few minutes, update the file, disconnect. And a week of reading time again. The third time, same as the first, charge, discharge quickly. The fourth time, I just charged, connected and disconnected almost immediately, just to see if it worked. And it did... Didn't have the time to experiment further, naturally, as there were whales to be seen
