Those missinformations you got from haters are a pure crap... i charge my every 3 weeks, and it still has a juice in battery. (i.e.i use only sideloaded epubs)
Is the every 3 weeks charging you do done under heavy usage? 3 to 6 hours reading daily, with front light always on (between1% to 9%)? (I have wifi always off, and side load all my books using Calibre.)

Edit: I just noticed your edit:

still if you have extensive reading time as you do (i read about 2-3hrs a day) you should watch your settings no matter what e reader you use.
Also, I don't let the battery go below 25% before re-charging; if I let it run down lower, I'd have longer between charges.

Anyway, thanks. Your experiences give me some hope fo r the Forma.
