Why should I get a Level 2 charger?

So, you have purchased an electric vehicle. And now you want to get the most out of it. The installation of a Level 2 charger will give you the certainty that your EV will be fully charged every morning when you wake up.

How do Level 1 chargers work?

Level 1 chargers are the chargers that often come with your electric vehicle. And they plug into 120-volt outlets. This is the same outlet you would plug your phone charger into. Level 1 chargers add range very slowly to your EV.

Level 2 chargers, on the other hand, will often require installation. They plug into 240-volt outlets. These are the outlets used for the typical dryer or air conditioning unit. Level 2 chargers add more than 30 miles of range per hour. For the average electric vehicle, this means it will take between 4 and 5 hours to get to full charge.

Which EV charger is best for me?

Selecting your EV charger is a nuanced decision. Make sure to take into consideration your EV, your home's electrical setup and your desires for charging time.
