I have the PB Touch and my experience of it is that my reader uses 3-4% per day when I use sleep mode (wifi off, reading 2-3 hours per day with very low backlight). If I have it set to auto power off, battery usage is about half that. On the plus side - powering up from off takes about 8-10 seconds and I have learned to live with that.
I must qualify my power figures by saying that I use the CoolReader fork as my reading app on the PB Touch and my impression is that app uses a bit more battery than the in-built reading app.
Fonts can be sideloaded. Adding dictionaries is less easy - they have to be in the PocketBook .dic format.
