AIRPLANE MODE
To keep your library in sync and updated, kindle uses the internet. If you currently have a book that is already saved in your local storage, it is recommended to use airplane mode. There will also be instances that you might be using the internet even though there is no connection yet the airplane mode is not active.
READ IN DAYLIGHT AT THE LOWEST BRIGHTNESS
Since Kindle uses E-Ink to mimic printed paper, Screen glares won’t be a problem if you are reading in broad daylight. It should be a good habit to keep your brightness at a minimum when reading in a highly illuminated environment to save battery life.
PAGE REFRESHER & POWER SAVER
Another way to save your Kindle battery is to enable a power saver and turn off page refresh. Turning off the page refresh might make a small difference but it may save your Kindle battery in the long run. Enabling a power saver would really make a difference if you wanna prolong your kindle’s battery life, however, some older models do not have this feature.
UPDATE OR RESTART YOUR KINDLE
Moving on to the more technical part in case your kindle experiences an issue. Bugs and glitches may also affect the battery life or even the main device as well. Updating your kindle may be a good idea if such technical issues arise keeping your kindle device healthy. You could also try a quick restart fix to reset your kindle device.
CHECK FOR CORRUPT BOOKS
You may also check for corrupted books since kindle will index all the books that are added to your storage. If there are corrupted books, kindle will have a hard time re-indexing all of the corrupted books which may result in issues and even stress the batteries.
ADDING BOOKS WHILE CHARGING
The last tip to use the kindle efficiently is to charge while you download your books since it will take a lot of resources to download books or move books to your PC.
