Tesla Motors Club

I tried using scheduled departure for the first time last week. We had planned to leave for a long trip Saturday morning at 8 AM. So Friday evening I plugged it in, set it charge to 100%, departing Saturday morning at 8 AM. (So I had to check the box that includes weekends). When I left the car, it was NOT charging -- the car was already at 75%, so I assume this was normal and that it would probably start charging around 6 AM to top it off to 100% (I have a Tesla wall charger)

I woke up early (around 6 AM), and to my surprise, the car was already charged to 100%. Why was it already fully charged? Who knows what time overnight it charged to 100%.

Is this how it's supposed to work? Did I do something wrong?

Also, is there an option in the app to do this? I couldn't find it. Also seems like there should be a way to set a one-time departure, rather than having to select weekdays/weekends, and then having to deactivate those settings afterwards.
