And what is a "reasonable level"? for the screen light? 10 isn't bright enough for me in a normally lit room.
I open and close the cover on my Oasis numerous times per day, some days 15-20 times. I'm sure that effects my battery life also, the multiple wake-ups with the light all the way up.
I plug it in every 5-7 days on average, when it gets in the 15-20% range.

Aren't those 2-3 week times that are advertised for eink readers based on reading some fairly minimal amount like 20 or 30 minutes a day? I've never gotten multiple weeks on my Sony readers. I usually read at least a couple hours a day, sometimes more, especially on weekends. Don't know the maximum number of days I've gotten on a battery charge but I am sure it was never as much as 2-3 weeks.
