If I'm reading this correctly it would affect battery life only while reading. I'm interested in figuring out how to implement "suspend while reading" because to me changing pages need not be quick, all I care about is battery life.

There are conflicting threads here, some accusing Koreader of wasting battery while in sleep, which is another issue altogether. It could be just some hardware quirk sometimes when sleep fails to turn off something.

I have Kobo Clara BW and I suspect Koreader does use more battery than Nickel... however, there is no going back to Nickel it's so bad UX-wise. Koreader is the only choice!
