Charge Powerstone spell is one of those "ill-advised" spells that should never have made it into the GURPS system.

To wit: Charge powerstone is NOT an enchantment, yet has the ability to permanently alter the enchantment capabilities of the enchantment itself.

Frankly? That is one spell that should have been revised from the bad old days of GURPS GRIMOIRE and made to be strictly useful as is, and remove the possibility of quirking or destroying a powerstone with a crit failure. If the spell is too useful as written, then make it less useful by having the spell cost more energy.
