What is best for e-book reading?

If you’re away tramping for say a week or more, and want to read Amazon e-books you own, what do people recommend is best – a Kindle or an iPad (which has Kindle on it)?

The three factors for me are:

  1. Battery life (very impt as no or little power)
  2. Weight
  3. Ease of reading

I have an Ipad 1 (I know, very old but does the job) so it is either take that or buy a Kindle. Would be a fairly basic one as only need it for book reading. Welcome feedback as to whether to buy a Kindle to take tramping, and if so which one.
