So if I get this right, the reason why it costs less charges to return his mana than the amount you get from draining it is because you can use it to recover more mana than you started with? After reading Axelus comment and noticing its synergy with his W I see what its intent is. My first impression was that you were just paying mana to get tenacity and some mana charges that you had no need for. Good job in creating a nice ability synergy.
