Duh. Called adsorption rate and not really efficient time wise. I was wondering if arriving at the next station with more or less charge affected that stop more noticeably other than linearly of charge time. There is a second knee in the adsorption area where current falls further and the charge time extends again. This is where I usually stop my charge since it takes an hour to gain only one more resting volt (1 mile extra range)
