Since I am taking a brake I simply plug it in. If I know i am going to be out of the house I make sure it is charged up before I leave. Would I like to read like I do and charge it monthly. Sure. But as is I am not unduly inconvenienced by the battery life.
Lol,
30% of battery depletion per day is acceptable to you?
I turn wifi off, and use no more than 4 in light (preferably 0), and that helps me in using about 10% per day, just for read time, not including depletion overnight.
If I don't, I get sometimes 10% of depletion per hour!
I've even been contemplating on disabling the touch screen.
