Fix The D*mn Light
I know it's ridiculous, but am I the only one who eagerly waits to see if Kobo has fixed the charging light so it turns green when done?

On which device? I have both the H2O and the Glo HD and I don't believe I've ever seen more than one color (white and red respectively) for the light.

I just tap on the screen and check. Don't think there's a charging light on my device.

The H2O has a white light and I don't believe the hardware contains anything else... so you're not going to see it 'fixed'.

Honestly not something I can see a reason for changing, e-readers last so damn long anyway I'm hardly ever charging it.

I don't see a charging light on my H2O. I've never seen one. So where is it if it exists?

The KA1 has one (going from red to green when charged).

My old Kobo goes from red to blue. I think it is the second one.

I should have been more specific. I was talking about my Aura One. I charged it this morning after putting in the latest firmware and the light didn't change when full. I powered it off and turned it back on and now it turns green when done.

Yeah, it still bugs me on my Aura One. Leave it charging overnight, wake up, it's still red. Some times, as soon as I pick it up, it turns green, but no rhyme or reason to that happening, unless the movement is triggering the auto turn on. Umpteen software versions ago, it was always green at the end of the charging cycle.
