Almot the whole idea is to leave it as long as it takes to get down to the .5/100.
So it takes 4 hours on an average-sunny day, from ~7.00 to ~11.00. Might set timer to 4 hours, will see if it helps. Not prepared to disable the timer yet, the very idea of frying the batteries indefinitely at 14.4V doesn't sit well with me.
Edit - correction:
4 hours from the beginning of charging to Abs end. Actual time in Abs is ~2 hours to 0.5A/100AH, if there is any sun. When there is no sun... might get a few minutes in Abs, if even that. There is a daily report on screen, with time spent in Abs. Next day it would catch up. Ah, what the heck, will disable the timer :)
