Clawdia, if 2 new Voyages had unsatisfactory battery life for you, there isn't much hope for you being happy with a 7" Oasis. The Voyage battery has 25% more capacity than an Oasis battery. Maybe 2 readers with one always on a charger would work.
Maybe if enough people demand something like a 7" Voyage with a battery even larger than in the current Voyage, such a model will get built.
Everything is a trade off. I prefer not having a room brightly lit and appreciate the Kindle's built in lighting, but I am also lucky that 11 is bright enough for me. Have you considered increasing room lighting and turning the Kindle light brightness down or off?
