Plus, if you are using a DC fast charger, the speed of charging drops
significantly after you reach 80% charged (sometimes down to the speed
of a Level 2 charger!).
So if you can make it to the next charger with only an 80% charge, it's
faster to drive off on the next leg of your trip as soon as you reach
80% charged.
While traveling between SuperChargers, I find it a good strategy to try
to avoid arriving with more than 10%, then depart when charge rate drops
to about 50kw. If that will get me to the next SuperCharger with the
10% factor of safety. Fastest charging is done below 50% so you may be
wasting time while waiting for 80%.
