I recall from my youth being told that a cold start using the starter took the dynamo between 5 and 10 minutes to bring the battery to full charge.
Bearing this in mind. when I first start the car, I use the full charge setting for ten minutes and then turn the switch to the half charge setting for the rest of the journey. After hot start, I switch to full charge for between 3 and 5 minutes and then go back to half charge.
I haven't had any battery problems so far.
