[PALMA] Battery issue
Hello,
Since the last update (2025-06-17_20-38_4.0.2-rel_0617_d4b9d37036) my device is getting really hot in the upper part, and it's battery is getting drained down really fast, even when powered off.
I did loose ~50% of battery in power off mode over 6 hours.
I have set all parameter to balanced mode, no backlight, plane mode and I am only using neoreader.
I can't think of anything else than a setting changed in the last release.
Thanks in advance.

Dear customer,
Thank you for contacting us and apologize for the inconvenience.
Regarding the issue of the battery draining fast, we suggest setting a time for the device to auto-sleep or auto-power off. You can set the time via "Settings" > "Power" > "Auto Sleep" and "Auto Power-Off". Also, you could go to Settings > Power > Auto Sleep > "WiFi Status After Sleep" set to "Turn Off". After that, please let us know whether the problem persists.
If the problem persists, we would appreciate it if you could reproduce the problem with the battery and submit feedback. To more accurately locate the problem, please assist in completing the following log collection operations:
1) Enable the option to save logs. Please go to Settings > FAQ & Feedback > Click on the Settings icon in the upper right corner to enable the Save Log to Local option
2) Reproduce the issue and submit the log. When the device experiences rapid power consumption again:
- Please describe the problem in the feedback. (e.g. 7% power consumption per hour of reading or listening to a book using a device)
- Please tick the option "I agree to send encrypted log data" and click "Send".
Once you have done the battery test and submitted the feedback, please kindly send us the Mac address by submitting a request via the link below:

Many thanks for your effort and understanding.

Hello.
Still no news ?
It's depressing to have to charge my device almost twice a day, for a e-ink device.
And it worked fine for more than two years.0 -
