The Benefits of a Home EV Charger
Attempting to charge your EV with a standard household outlet can take days for a full charge. Even overnight charging may not be sufficient. Our experts recommend upgrading to a Level 2 EV charger, which operates at 240 volts and charges your vehicle much faster. This ensures you can get the full mileage range from your EV without waiting for long hours.
Different types of Level 2 chargers are available, offering varying current ratings. For instance, a 40-amp Level 2 charger can charge up to six times faster than a standard outlet, while even a 16-amp Level 2 charger will significantly reduce charging time.
Smart and Convenient Charging
Home EV chargers can often be managed via a mobile app, giving you more control over the charging process. Relying on public charging stations can be unreliable and inconvenient, making a home charger a much better option for regular use.
Correct Installation is Crucial
Installing an EV charger involves integrating it with your home’s electrical system, which must be done correctly by a licensed electrical contractor. Your electrical panel must have enough capacity to handle the additional load. In some cases, an upgrade to your electrical panel may be necessary to accommodate a higher-capacity charger.
