But there is no response to the power button press, no Restore screen after holding it down 60 seconds, no response to charging 4 hours, no power on light on the power button, nothing at all..
When powered off, charge state was about 80%, and I believe these devices will function when charging even if the battery is completely kaput or absent, so am wondering if the problem may be with the power button itself, though its action feels normal.
Advice please.

Sounds like a faulty battery, i am new to kobo devices but back in the days i had a pretty similar problem with one of my kindles and the problem was caused by the magnetic cover, because the cover was not putting the device to sleep even if it was clossed, and it drained the battery duing the night, it was solved by changing to a different case.
