Thanks. That might improve the charging performance even more. I'll give it a try.
Edit: I just checked the control panel, and there is a setting for "Display Stays Lit", but mine is already set to "Never" instead of "While Charging". Are you sure that this setting still applies when the N810 is switched off?

The most important thing that I learned is probably obvious to all of you, so I'm going to be checking myself in to a rest-home for the terminally stupid tomorrow
I think I've seen people allude vaguely to this before, but it didn't click, so I'm going to spell it out. This is the crucial point: if you're charging your N810 from a battery pack or solar charger or something, always charge it while it's switched on, or if it's dead completely, start charging it and then switch it on. Because, as you would naturally expect, the N810 is a device that uses far less power when it's switched on than when it's switched off
