Falling into a super-massive Black Hole

Imagine an isolated one, with no spin, and no net electric charge; imagine a super-duper massive one, with an event horizon (EH) 0.1 light-year in radius (yeah, unlikely there are many, if any, in the observable universe).

Imagine you are tiny, only 1mm top to tail, and that you have a set of extremely robust, highly precise and accurate, and equally tiny clocks and rulers, which you are able to carry with you right up to extreme spaghettification.

You cross the EH without noticing anything, as you can observe only your local environment, and tidal forces are immeasurably small here.

By your own clock, how long do you have to live, before you hit the singularity?

What about if the SMBH has a spin just a tad less than maximal? Would your remaining life be much longer? Shorter? Does it make a difference if you’re falling in at a pole? The equator?

What if both you and the SMBH are charged?
