Last night's 80% End-Only timer finished 18minutes "early". IMHO that's rather closer to the end-time than prior experience, but then again, we usually charge to 100%, and that one varies anywhere from 1-1.5hours, but I've also seen 50 mins and 31mins. Be aware ... there appear to be other variables at work, especially as the battery ages/degrades. Some of those variables seem to include a) SOC at charging start; b) temperature; c) whether you've seen 9/12 bars at 80%; d) balancing; e) other ?? .
BTW ... the reason we charged to 80% last night: I was able to borrow a GID meter. I will post results elsewhere as well later (after 100%), but might as well do it here too:

End-Timer: 07:00 Actual Notification: 06:42 10/12 bars.
At 07:30: OAT (per LEAF): 52F (nearby weatherstation: 48F). 27,790 miles, 12 SOC Bars;
Gids: 213 @ 385.5 Volts. GOM: 68 miles, 5TB.
ChargePoint recorded every 5 minutes. At 04:27:23 = 0kW; between 04:32:23 and 06:42:24 between 3.71 and 3.68kW, and at 06:47:24 = 0 kW (note however that this time clock is not sync'ed with above times). Total 8.124kWh. (I *think* it started around 4 or 5 bars, and I forgot to record the # Gids. )
