Blink is the same way in my area, high cost per time instead of actual power. Having my 2020 to test DCFC this year has shown me that I wasn't just seeing things in my 2013 vs. the fast chargers in my area. They all start out fast but the ramp down can be insanely slow towards the end. The free QC at Nissan HQ (and EA QC) showed me that other QC networks could be a whole lot faster and it's not always the EV that is the limiting factor.
I can put 200 miles of range on my Leaf for only $7 and 30 minutes with an EA network, to the do the same thing on Blink cost roughly +$32 now and takes nearly an hour. Now all QC networks are created equal unfortunately.
