Anybody running an Elipsa v.1 seeing the same battery performance issues?

I’ve noticed that not only is my Elipsa battery drained from time to time after using notebooks, but also my Kobo stylus. I’ve had to change the batteries on the stylus twice now since this firmware dropped—very unusual behavior. It’s possible that both the Elipsa and the stylus batteries could be failing independently suddenly after the new firmware was installed, but it’s not likely.
I’ve taken to switching out to Home after doing notebook work, which seemed to fix the issue, but ten minutes ago despite the Kobo opening into Home when I woke it up, the battery was at 5%. A PDF was my last read item.
I wonder if the Elipsa is getting stuck while syncing. I know that was an issue for some people a year or two back. I ran into it on my Kobo Clara HD. Since it involves the stylus, it might involve Bluetooth instead, but this is just spitballing. I
have noticed the Elipsa getting stuck on “Checking for updates…”. I’ll reboot the device when that happens, but it could be happening while asleep, thus draining the battery.
Here’s what I have done:
1. I’ve rebooted my Elipsa multiple times
2. I used More>Settings>Device information>Repair
3. I switch from “My Notebooks” to Home whenever I finish working on a notebook.
Not much. I’ve been sick since the end of August, so I haven’t had much energy to hone in on this. Before I perform a soft factory reset, I could use suggestions on identifying what is happening. This might have nothing to do at all with Notebooks or PDFs.
Got any ideas?
