Having a battery issue with this latest firmware. Before updating I could get weeks of reading (an hour each night) before having to recharge… the first time after updating it discharged over night. Subsequent nights I’ve had to charge it - it lasts a bit longer each time but still not great. For instance, it went from 100% to 62% with 45 minutes of reading at 3% brightness.

Of course, this could be a total coincidence, that exactly when I update the firmware, the battery “fails”. But it seems unlikely that my batter just stopped working properly.
