Reviews have placed battery life for the Fire at around 7-8 hours. I seem to be getting about 3-4 hours from mine. I don't have long reading or video watching sessions. Perhaps 20 minutes of Bejeweled 2, a half-hour episode of streaming video, a little reading. I seem to have to recharge it every few days with so little usage. I charged it last night and put it in my laptop case. Pulled it out now and there is only 66% remaining when I haven't used it at all!
Since it's not dependent on phone signal strength and I don't think any of the apps are auto-refreshing, what could be sucking the battery dry? Is there a rogue app or do I have a duff unit?
