So no, one can not state with a fair degree of assurance that the Sage will not last as long as the Forma on a battery charge.

I've just been googling to find the mAh of the new Paperwhites, and so far have come up empty. Every site repeats Amazon's claims about improved battery life, but no site I've found yet includes battery size in the specifications listing. Perhaps Kobo deserves some credit for being up front about this in a way Amazon has not been.
