Level 1 EV Chargers
These are standard chargers that come with your electric vehicle. They plug into a regular household outlet but charge your vehicle slowly, often requiring over 20 hours to fully recharge a battery. While ideal for overnight charging, Level 1 chargers may not be sufficient for those with longer commutes.
Level 2 EV Chargers
A level 2 EV charger installation provides faster and more efficient charging by using a 240-volt circuit. Typically, these chargers can fully charge an EV battery in about three hours. Since Level 2 chargers require a dedicated circuit, hiring EV charger installers ensures proper installation and compliance with safety codes.
Level 3 EV Chargers
These high-speed chargers, commonly found at public charging stations, can add significant range in a short time. However, their industrial-grade power requirements make them impractical for home use.
Why Choose a Level 2 EV Charger?
Upgrading to a Level 2 charger is a game-changer for most electric vehicle owners. These systems provide much faster charging times, allowing you to conveniently recharge your vehicle at home. With residential EV charger installation from Mr. Electric of the Tri-Cities, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your setup is handled by experts who prioritize safety and efficiency.
