Like I said before, it's been tried, and involves compromises. I realize that I have taken quite a bit of depth-charging the last few days in cdrsubron7's Solomon missions, and someone did manage to sneek some torp juice onboard, but I still don't understand your Balao taking that long to recharge... but rest assured, all aspects of the game are being looked at, and all comments are more than welcome - they do get looked at and considered.
Come to think of it G Man, do that test again, but when you go to re-charge, use Ahead Standard, and see what happens... now - where did I put those figures from FotRSU battery use / charge?...
