Cheryl,
I think I figured out the problem. You don't get drainage because you are
reading in Spanish. I decided to check Spanish yes in the keyboard options
when I stopped reading two hours ago, and I did not get even a one percent
drainage. This is unusual. Usually the drainage is so great, two hours would
have produced a significant percentage drop in battery level. Most of us are
reading in English, which is where the drainage occurs - the English yes
option. Others can test this - when stopped reading, choose Spanish yes
option.
