It hasn't escaped my notice that many people are unhappy with the battery life on the Oasis to begin with, and if I'm going to end up with a device that has a battery life expectancy of only one to two years, it seems I'd be paying too much for too little.
Am I wandering down a garden path, or is it a reasonable concern that I have about the life expectancy of a frequently charged battery?

I have to charge once a week or once every week and a half. 10 light level that is recommended to me is too dark. I read with light level 12 to 16 and at least an hour a day on some days a little less or a little more. I try to keep wifi and bluetooth off. I only turn it on to sync my devices. I think if you discharge the battery 100% then recharge it is better for the battery
