Try not shutting off and just putting it to sleep and see how your battery drain goes. It should work well that way.
Thank you for the reply.

However - I do not follow. My energy saving settings are
- go to sleep after 5 minutes and
- go to power off after 60 minutes of not using.

Then, when I want to read I press the power button to switch on.

Is that not how one is supposed to use it? Should I say - never go off? (I do not switch the unit by hand off - it goes off due to the energy saving setting)

Still: why did the unit did not go to sleep/off or off after switching it on last night?
