If someone was only to have 2 boxes into Meditation, how long would powerboost last total?
At Meditate 2, you'd have 45 meditate. So your powerboost would last 7 min 15 sec.
This means you'd have 1 min ramp up, 7 min 15 sec at full power, and then 1 min ramp down. So the total powerboost cycle time would be 9 min 15 sec. So you should have 2 min 45 sec before you could powerboost again. This is how it shouldwork.
I tested this when I was at Meditate 3 and it worked just as I describe. It also works according to this formula at TKM. I didn't test at Meditate 2 or 4 though, but I would expect it to work the same.
heres a /forceofwill story for you.
I was out doing faction missions with my ATST....
I stumble upon my mission only 2 be attacked by 2 conspicous specforce urban guerilla's. At first this didn't concern me as I was after all doing rebel missions and I figured these 2 like many were part of the mission and aggroed me.
Well while I was running to beat them down next thing I know I'm getting eyeshot spammed and before I know it I'm lying incapped on the ground. The bounty hunter then procededs to set my ATST on fire while I lay on the ground. Obviously he was keeping me alive so I couldn't recall it after I cloned.
Fortunately I had my wits about me and remembered '/forceofwill'.... so I type it in and BAM I'm up. I throw out a lunge put him in prone, knockdown+dizzy, uh3,5 seconds later he's a dead BH, and the ATST is saved 
I was so overjoyed by all of this, I completely forgot to kill his faction pets before db'ing him... ahh well..save the payback for another day for my ATST's new 5k in wounds ... grr...

The last alarm is no longer needed, but I left it in from when my powerboost time was less than 12 minutes and I needed to know when I could use it again. At TKM, you can use it once you get the message than the powerboost has completely faded.
actually, at med 2 you can use it as soon as you get that message
so aside from the ramp up/down, you can pretty much be powerboosted at all times
