That power off option on this Kobo is really "usefull" when bunch of peope have demonstrated that there is almost no difference in regard to battery drain between powered off Kobo and Kobo in regular sleep/standby, and when IIRC @NiLuJe tested and observed with a USB power-draw measurement thingy that PW5 when idleing with the screen (and lights???
) turned on uses less power than last 2 generations of Kobo devices in sleep
or powered off state.

Yeah I forgotten to comment on the frontlight usage: arround 60% of my total reading time I read with fronthlight turned off (I prefer how the screeen looks when it reflects the light from my floor lamp that I have beside my bad), the rest of the time when I'm using the frontlight I use it turned on to 18-25% intensity.
I never read any of my reader with room light turned off (as in total darkness) and reader's frontlight being the only light source... to me that looks and feels to much like reading on a tablet and I could never get used to that.
