It is no less efficient! Instead of putting X amount of gallons in the tank one time, you put X/2 gallons twice. Not a big deal (to me at least) if I'm not exceeding the battery's range on a daily basis.
Not to mention the fact that it will make the person "feel" better when they fill up when they hear the guy in the aveo next to them saying: "damnit it cost $45 to fill my AVEO up!"
