Which EV Charger Type Is Fit To Me?
There are different EV charger types, each offering a distinct charging speed. We can install the following types of EV chargers:
-
Level 1 Chargers
These plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and provide a slow charge, ideal for overnight charging at home. They’re affordable and convenient, but take longer to fully charge your vehicle.
-
Level 2 Chargers
These are hardwired to your electrical panel and offer a faster charging rate than Level 1 chargers, typically taking several hours to fully charge your battery. They’re a great choice for home charging if you have the necessary electrical capacity.
-
DC Fast Chargers
These high-powered chargers are typically found at public charging stations and can provide a rapid charge in a matter of minutes. While ideal for long trips, they are not typically installed in residential or commercial settings due to their high cost and electrical requirements.
We’ll Help You Choose the Right EV Charger
Choosing the right EV charger depends on various factors:
- Vehicle compatibility: Different EVs have different charging capabilities. We’ll ensure the chosen charger is compatible with your specific vehicle model.
- Driving habits: If you primarily drive short distances, a Level 2 charger might be sufficient. For longer commutes or frequent long trips, a DC fast charging option at home might be beneficial (subject to electrical capacity).
- Electrical panel capacity: Level 2 chargers require a higher electrical capacity than Level 1 chargers. We’ll assess your existing panel to ensure it can handle the additional load.
