Thank you for your interest in the Kobo eReader. You are correct, the Kobo eReader should hold a charge for much longer than you are experiencing. When you first received the eReader, did you let it charge for 3 -4 hours initially before you began using it? We suggest that you let it charge overnight to see if that resolves the issue. The battery in the Kobo eReader does not have a "memory" so it is not necessary to totally deplete the battery before recharging it.

Doesn't that contradict what they've said to someone else? I'm sure I've read that Kobo has said before that we should completely deplete the battery before recharging.
I thought my battery life was going well for the first week. I got it last Monday and charged it for the first time on Saturday when the battery went down to one little tick left. I let it charge for 3 full hours and it was full until Monday morning when it was down to about 50%. Now I'm down to one little tick again, but I'm going to let it drain completely (like I thought we were supposed to do) until I charge it again.
Like many others, I'd like to know what they consider "regular use." I've read 2 books so far, I probably use it for a couple of hours every day but I'm sure I'm not getting even the 1000 page turns someone else was told they should expect.
