Here at work, we have some evs for moving equipment and boom lifts. I was under the impression that the slow charge after the 80% level was for deep charging. We have two trolleys that have been charged in this manner for 6 years on the same batteries. I wonder if maybe the fact that they are lead-acid makes their charging properties different? I am not extensively trained with evs, just go with what I have been told. I do love to learn.

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.
