Using L2 charger along route to skip fast DC charging

Traveling home, the Supercharger segment from Ozark AR to Brinkley AR is beyond my 2019 Model 3 range. In the past, I would divert to the Little Rock Supercharger midway but that adds diversion miles costing both time and distance. So this time, I used a free L2 charger along the route with a very short diversion:

• 291 miles, 3:14 hh:mm time - using L2 diversion
• 327 miles, 3:13 hh:mm time - diverting to Little Rock Supercharger

Here are the two routes:

They look to be 40 A @240 VAC. However my Tesla only takes a maximum of 32 A. In 30 minutes, I got enough reserve charge to reach Brinkley at posted speed limits.

I get about 32 miles of range per 240 VAC charger hour at 32 A. Commercial power at 208 VAC gives about 28 miles per hour charging.
