Dying (end of life) battery behavior on Oasis
I have an Oasis 9th Gen, current shape but without the warm light.

It is a little over 4 years old now. I got it October 2017.

I am curious what kind of behavior people have seen as the battery starts to run into it's end of life.

My battery life had gotten dramatically worse. But this has all happened since the 5.14.x firmware updates have occurred.

I am curious.. should I be expecting to see a long very gradual loss of battery life or do they tend to go pretty quickly?

I'm trying to decide whether it's time to trade/replace it I guess. If it's just software and might get fixed I'll wait, but it is getting annoying.

I'd guess if I was to read continuously at this point it might only last maybe 4 hours? (In airplane mode)
