Frequently Asked Questions

-
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF EV CHARGERS, AND WHICH ONE IS BEST FOR MY HOME OR BUSINESS?
There are three main types of EV chargers: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 (DC Fast Chargers).
- Level 1 chargers use a standard 120V outlet and are best for low mileage drivers who can leave their car charging overnight. These chargers are typically slower, providing around 2-5 miles of range per hour.
- Level 2 chargers operate at 240V and are the most popular choice for residential installations. They can charge an electric vehicle 5-7 times faster than a Level 1 charger, offering 25-30 miles of range per hour. These chargers are ideal for daily commuting and shorter turnaround times for fully charging your EV.
- Level 3 (DC Fast Chargers) are typically used in commercial or public settings, providing rapid charging in under an hour. These require more complex installation and are usually not feasible for residential use.
If you’re not sure which charger is best for your needs, our team can help evaluate your driving habits and the electrical setup at your location, and provide recommendations tailored to your situation.
