Charge it up 100% then write down the time date, Use the same settings you always use...happy reading! When it dies then you know how long the charge lasts for you!
BTW you could/should ask this question in the Amazon/Kindle Forum.... |

It depends on you settings, wifi/light/font size. Mine would get 5-7 hours. 7 when I turned wifi off and had light at 10. It was more in the 5 hour range on regular basis. But neither my bladder nor my stomach could handle non stop 5 hour reading without at least one stop. And that is when I would put it in cover, set aside, do my things, make tea, etc. It chargers in the cover very quickly in between.
I haven't done a timing anymore in some time. I got mine when it came out. What was that, May 2016?. So its possible that time has gone down a bit, but I don't know. I had also been reading more in the cover, because I read more sitting at a table so put it in a stand. |

A bit over 4 hours for me, with wifi/3g off. With it on, maybe 2 hrs.
Note I keep the kindle frontlight fairly low and read with a lamp beside me. |
