Which Electric Vehicle Charging Station Is Best For You?
Currently, Level 1 and Level 2 chargers are the two main electric vehicle supply equipment alternatives available.
Level 1 charger, that plugs into a typical household outlet, is a standard feature on all electric vehicles, when they are purchased new from the dealer. They are swift but perfectly functional. With the included Level 1 charger, complete electrical vehicle charging from scratch will take about 22 hours.
Level 2 Charger greatly reduces charging time by supplying 240 volts of energy at a much higher amperage. From the previously indicated 22 hours to roughly 8 hours with a full charge.
