====Your capacitor will recharge faster the closer you are to (aproximately) 25% of your maximum.====
====The recharge rate drops of very quickly once you go below this====

===Dust Puppy's Calculations===
The '''capacitor recharge rate''' is a non-linear function—the rate at any given moment depends on how much energy is stored at that moment. Near zero and near full capacity, the recharge rate is very low, and it peaks around 25 percent.

Here's a big graph of current capacitor capacity (in percentage) over time since being drained to zero.  The blue points are data points from my experiments.  The black line is an equation based on Dust Puppy's research (see link at top of this page) which you can see at the top left corner of the image.
