Part 2/7:
Basic Overview of Charging Types
Electric vehicles can be charged using various systems; the two primary methods are Level 1 and Level 2 charging:
Level 1 Charging involves a standard 120V household outlet, providing a modest and typically less efficient charge.
Level 2 Charging uses a 240V outlet, providing a much faster and more efficient solution, suitable for most households with the appropriate electrical setup.
If you drive a distance of about 50 miles daily, Level 1 charging might be sufficient, taking roughly 10 hours to fully recharge in many cases. However, for those with a larger daily driving requirement or who want quicker turnaround times, Level 2 chargers should be considered, particularly if you can charge overnight.
