The Kobo Libra I got a few years ago for 150 bucks has been a lifesaver. It's not particularly fast or big. But it's way better than the Kindle crap.

So you ever have charging issues? Sometimes mine just dies, and then doesn't wanna charge.

Yes. Though it might be related to the micro USB ports being bad. Or cables being bad.

The newer USB C ones are guaranteed to be better.

I have a usb c one, and its... Weird

Sometimes when it fully discharges it will just not take a charge. Once I had to open it up to jump the battery directly.

The other day it was at 16%, so I plugged it in. It charged to 75 percent... And then turned off, now it won't turn on. Might try jump-starting it again.

Wondering if I have a bad battery
