Forma battery discharging
My Forma has been a superb ereader, maybe better than my Aura One which I'm still preserving.

However, my Forma is starting to need more frequent recharges.

Any suggestions on this?

Buy a new battery and take it to your local phone repair shop. Or do it yourself if you feel confident with a bit of light soldering.

BTW, the first step in that guide seems unnecessary for our purpose. At least I was able to take the back off my Forma without removing the fingerplate. I didn't actually replace the battery on mine because both are still doing surprisingly well. But that's my backup plan.
