Disagree about optimal nap length being 24 minutes for everyone. For me, when I was doing polysleeping, anything longer than about 18 minutes of actual sleeping caused my body to switch into a longer sleep cycle.
ETA: Use a Zeo to measure this. Or just go by the "time at which you naturally wake up before the 25 minutes expire".
Do you happen to know an alternative to the Zeo? I googled a bit after I read your comment and the company is out of business since 2012. But there seems to be no alternative device that measures the brain-waves to detect the different phases of sleep.
Might be able to get a used one on eBay.

I am not sure I want a device that has no longer any support :/
But the Zzzs thing sounds really cool, I just reserved one for 15$. Thanks for the links!
