... except if you have the light all the way off. The light appears to comprise a really rather large proportion of the machine's total power budget: with it turned off, I get 12h--13h from a single internal battery charge, giving a total of perhaps *60h* (starting from fully-charged Oasis and cover) before the thing is depleted.
That's longer than any other Kindle ever -- but you have to go back to the external light and greyish screen of non-lit Kindles to get it, so I do this only if I know I won't be anywhere near a charger for days and will be reading a lot.
