Wahoo Element v2 charging characteristics?

I just received one of these tonight and have been working on setting it up but have one question I can’t seem to find an answer for. As it appears to be limited to 15 hours run time, if I were to plug it in to recharge during a very long ride, will it resume at the last point in my ride or start over ?

Is that an ELEMNT ROAM or an ELEMNT BOLT? I don't know about ROAM, but confirm for BOLT: you can charge it during the ride and it will continue to function while charging.

I once did a 39 hour ride. Used a portable charger to top off my Wahoo ELEMNT BOLT v2 whenever needed. It recorded the entire ride continuously, and uploaded as a single ride/file to Strava.
