Have had my new Kobo A1 for a few months now - love it.
Noticed that the battery drops from 80% to 70% in just a minute or so while reading. No light on. Same thing between 60 and 50%. The rest of the time it seems to drop as it should - a percent or so overnight on standby, and several percent during the day for the amount that I read. Very rarely use the light.

This must be software I would guess. Just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts on this.
This is my first Kobo and I am not inclined to send it back or do much else about it at this point unless anyone has better ideas.
Thanks so much.
