(I am thinking that the type of file you read may change the battery consumption rate. For those who get LOW page counts: What format were you reading and how many days since last full charge? )
I also did a number of "Demo" showings to co-workers  so my page count is low.
I was fully re-charged in less than 6 hours using the wall charger. |
Second full charge was 6 days ago. I have only been reading a .mobi (created with Calibre - epub format wasn't successful in my file conversion). I did have the PP turned off for the first 3-4 days since the last charge but have left it turned on since.
I might try turning it off over night, but I keep getting the feeling that the amount of power drain shutting down/starting up and loading a book would be more than the slight power trickle leaving it on. I'm actually (more because I can) unplug the battery for 5 or so minutes, reseat it and see how it goes from there. Battery removal has resolved many a computer problems for me.
