Try this... Get a paper clip and a pair of pliers.. Bend the "free" end out but leave the rest as a handle. Then bend the stretch out end pependicular to the handle.

The main thing is why is it eating so much current in sleep mode? Or does the battery has a defect in it? I guess charging the battery and then disconnect it from the reader internals for a month shelf test would be the last possible test to run.

It should be using just enough micro watts to pole the switch on the side and possible the timer. Everything else should be off so to speak.

Here is the bother. Only turning 20 pages for 30 days it should not be dead! But was dead. Before I ran the month and was about 1/4 to almost 1/2 gauge and flipping pages like crazy!

I saw just after the update that I was getting less running time or found it basicaly dead when I should have had enough power for a read...

Power level meters are tough to hit right on these type or any batteries...
