I noticed it very quickly because I was in complete dark tweaking the brightness from the left edge side and then it suddenly switched off after 5 seconds. But yeah it's much harder to notice the difference between 1% and 0% if you're not in the dark.

Probably, though I wish it was handled more simply. I'd like a reading-stats tool only for local purposes as I don't and won't ever use any Kobo web service (like syncing, downloading books from bookstores or whatever). I'm sure such a tool could be quite fault-less as it would only need to note the current time when opening a book and then again when closing it (i.e putting the device in sleep mode or going back to the homescreen) and measure time at a couple of other events to make these stats.
In fact, I use exclusively Kobo ePubs (regular epub files loaded using the Kobo Touch Extended Driver from Calibre) and the inbook statistics that the kepub renderer provides are just fine, though incomplete to my taste.
Maybe one day they'll be a custom global-reading-stats tool for the device.
