Well, now I'm scared and unhappy... Wow-2: and this is all with wifi on, while my numbers are without wifi... So with wifi my 1200 turns into ~400, which is ten times less than yours. That's already kinda rather odd, but my Oasis is refurbished, and I've already behind these 30 days of Amazon's warranty for refurbished units, so let's live with what we have...
Are you certain that having the wifi on leads to 3 times the battery usage? I'm asking because I tried turning the wifi off when I first got the Oasis 2, and it didn't seem to make that much of a difference with regards to battery life.
