Question Configuring Likebook Mars for Better E-Reader Battery Life

Hello:

I'm attempting to configure my Likebook Mars as an efficient Android E-Ink reader rather than an efficient Android E-Ink Tablet.

Other tan Boyue's apps, I've only have Calibre Companion installed, and all of my e-books (~12.000: mostly mobi and epub, about ~100 pdf) are on a "Calibre" folder on my SDCard, so they are (supposedly) not being indexed by the Boyue software.

With the device on airplane mode (or: Wi-Fi off andf Bluetooth off) and using it only as an E-reader (as opposed to using it as an E-Ink multimedia Android tablet... which you may) battery for me lasts a week or so, reading about an hour daily (or so says Boyue's widget on the home page).

With that being said, I'd like to get the community input on the following questions:
  1. Does it really have a huge impact on battery life to keep your ebooks on the SDCard, even if you keep them on a folder other than "\Books"?
  2. What would you say was your most effective measure towards better battery life on the Likebook Mars?
  3. With only one non Boyue' app installed, would Greenify (or similar app: which one?) make a singnificant difference on battery life?

Awaiting your kind reply,

[INCANUS]
