The battery life in normal conditions is excellent, actually, so yours must have been failing for quite some time and is now probably at the very end of its life.
Can you give me the exact battery number/name please? Maybe that amazon link?

Does the ereader fit back together once pried apart?

Also any ideas on good Calibre settings?


Edit is PR-285083 the part number for the battery? Also compatible with B&N glo?

It's really hard to find a reasonable price for that battery in Canada it's roughly $30 at the cheapest shipped.
