Why Install a Level 2 EV Charger at Home?
While most EVs come with a Level 1 charger that plugs into a standard 120-volt outlet, these chargers can take 8-16 hours for a full charge. A Level 2 charging station significantly reduces charging time, allowing your electric battery to fully charge in just 3-5 hours.
