Are All EV Chargers the Same?
EV chargers for homes and cars come in different types and power levels. However, they all serve the same purpose: to provide electrical power to a battery for charging. These come with a charging cord and plug that can be connected to a standard electrical outlet. While this is useful, it may take hours or even overnight to fully charge the vehicle’s battery due to a slower power supply. Here are the following types of EV chargers you can choose from depending on your needs:
- Level 1 Chargers – These chargers come standard with your electric vehicle. They are most useful for overnight charges since they typically use your home’s outlets for power.
- Level 2 Chargers – Level 2 chargers are fast-acting and require a professional for proper installation. They need a 240-volt circuit to work as a fast EV charger effectively. These powerhouses can increase your mileage range by 70 miles for each hour of charging.
- Level 3 Chargers – These EV chargers are usually seen in public charging stations due to their industrial standards. They can add up to 160 miles of driving range to batteries in about half an hour.
