[QUOTE="IvanLasston, post: 1409851, member: 145676"] I have all 3 versions of the iPad and I don't really see this draw down. I use the magnetic cover to sleep it. Generally I plug it in at night - but I just came back from camping - and I didn't have it plugged in. If I wasn't using the New iPad - then the battery never really dropped. That is a good question that Nick asked - but the New iPad is also capable of 4G. I don't have one of those but I know if you are in a spotty area this can really draw down your battery. The second question is are you connected to Wifi? Is there something running that is always looking for data - or Maps - is there anything using location services. I do have secondary batteries that I keep around. I like Zagg's because it is compact. [url=http://www.zagg.com/accessories/zaggsparq.php]ZAGG | Portable Battery Charger | iPad, iPhone, Tablet, Phone | ZAGGsparq[/url] I have had trouble with the prongs breaking - but if it is within a year Zagg will replace it. I just got this isound one. It is a lot bigger but it has twice the charge of the Zagg.
