Home Charging Estimate?

I did my first charge at home. At 37% it took 7.5 hrs to get to 100%. (Still waiting for Nissan email for EVGO.) I am in California the way my rate works is Start at Tier 1 when exceeded it goes to Tier 2 which is higher. To avoid a 8hr charge where it goes to HIGHER Tier 2 rate,I split it up. I plug in at 8pm for start of charge this way at Midnight 2nd half of charge is on next day. Your rates are probaly cheaper than Calif this just helps spliiting charge to 2 days. My math shows me needing maybe 12hr charge a week.Right now it seems to charge 10%hr. This is just my opinion Im sure others think differently just throwing out there to think about, Thanks (Ready for Spring). Calif does have EV rate but off times are higher.My numbers might change also since car is so new. It was also nice to follow charging on Nissan App.

Nissan says it accepts 7.2kw charging speed via L2. My garage charger shows that it accepts upto 7.5 kw and doesn't take the full 14hrs to charge from 0 to 100 as advised. But I did notice that after 92-93% the charging speeds goes down rapidly and at 96% , it looked like a L1 charging speed. With all the recommendations that I read online, I prefer to charge only until 90% and don't let it go below 15%.
My smart charger also displays an approximate charge estimate based on the utility rates in my area and it was approximately $8 to charge from 10 to 90%
