I have just bought Kobo Elipsa last week after using Kindle for many years and so far with rather mixed impressions.

One of the issues I am having is the battery time. My first and only e-book I read so far (EPUB bought on Kobo store) took about 13 hours to read. Half of the time I read in dark conditions so therefore used the front light, I think around "half intensity" mostly. The other half of the time I used no light. I disconnected WiFi connection while reading most of the time to save the battery usage. The battery charge went from 100% to 20% in only two days (though 13 hours of reading).

Is above battery life time simply to expect for the Kobo Elipsa?
