I just picked up my car and plugged in the factory tender the second day. It stayed on the charge mode for at least 6 hours before I went to bed. The next morning it was on a maintainer charge mode so I don't know how many hours it took to fully charge the battery.

The trick is to remove the bottom of the wheel well cover. It pops off with a few clips. No need to remove it or the upper attachments, just the bottom. It helps get the carpet out withoiut ripping! It's very important when you need to remove more to get at the rear fuse panel.
