I am charging my new 2018 Leaf at 120V. have a plug-in meter that plugs into the wall plug and then the charger is plugged into the meter. When i start charging, it reads about 12A and about 1150 Watts draw. Right near the end of charging to 100%, like the hour or two before the charger goes off, it is still reading the same Amps and Watts. I had expected those to drop near the end, since it seems like you are not charging the battery as much near the end (tapering) and so why is it drawing the same power? Like in the old days when you charged a 12V battery you could see the Amps drop to near 0 at the end, and then you knew charging was done. Whey doesn't charging the Leaf battery have the same behavior? Thanks, if you understand this issue and can reply!
