That was by far the biggest disappointment for me. When compared to Kindle PW5's battery life Libra 2 is a terrible terrible device.
3-4% battery drain as best case (and sometimes as much as 10%) for each 24h in standby / sleep mode should be unacceptable to anyone that has ever owned a non-Basic Kindle.

I have 3 Kindles inc PW3, and did have an Oasis (2nd) which is was worse than the Sage. Your claim about Libra 2 'appalling battery life' is massive hyperbole.
My Libra 2 has fantastic battery life when sleeping compared to the Kindles (which have no OFF) and has an off setting.
Reading life is excellent.
It needs several days sleep or more to drop by 1% charge.
Perhaps you have sync, WiFi, BT and frontlight all on and a faulty sleep cover?
The Sage has the poorest battery life of any Kobo and it's still acceptable.
