Thanks for the info Dan, this is exactly what I was looking for. I just plug the chargers into my batteries, turn the dial to how many hours I want, and I'm done. I use a grounded three-outlet power tap so I can plug two things in at the same time without a power strip. One outlet of the power tap faces the wall in this position, but it leaves two open outlets.

I use a smart plug into a power strip with the chargers plugged into that.  Then use the countdown feature on the app.

I also use a smart plug, but one attached to an Alexa. I named it "charger". Then I just say "Alexa, sleep timer 6 hours with charger".

Smart plug sounds like a great idea. Downside for me is when I travel with the bike.
