Recently I charged at the Blink QC in Belmont, CA at the VW EV lab. When I plugged in, the Blink said I had 50% charge and gave me the option only of charging to 60% or 80%. I chose 80% and took a walk. The middle blue light was on when I started. I got back at 13 minutes and watched as it went from 78% to 80%. It hit 80% (according to the Blink) at exactly 15 minutes.
Since you used a Blink QC and it read you were at 50%, you were actually below 50%. You need to push 'other options' or something similar to go to another screen and then you can choose others, including 90% and 100%. Since you chose 80%, that means when it shut off you were only at an actual 70% which may explain the middle light. If you had chosen 90% or 100%, you would have received 80%/ten bars. If you had 6 bars or just above 50% (actual), and chosen 100%, it would have charged to 90 some percent, depending on different factors. You will never get a full 100% using QC like you could with L2. The highest I ever remember getting was 91%.
