So many times I forget to plug the deck or someone uses the charging cable for something else and I come back to play the next weekend and the deck is at 0%. Why doesn’t the deck have a deep sleep or hibernate mode on by default like my laptop or iPad?

I don't know, last time I've seen that work was in 1998. My dad had an IBM and at least in the pre-installed Win 95 SE it could suspend or hibernate. Never seen anything else pull that off since then.

My GPD Win4 handles hibernate beautifully (sleep sucks, though). I've left it on hibernate for weeks to a month and at most I come back to 10% less battery.
