Taking charge of your EV’s range can be as simple as having your own EV charging station in Los Angeles, CA. An overnight charge, or top-off while you’re working in your home office, can take care of “range anxiety” and set you free. The secret is having a Level 2 charger instead of the basic charging cord most cars come with.
Along with the freedom to just charge while you’re busy around the house or sleeping, a home EV charger installation by Monkey Wrench Plumbing, Heating, Air & Electric lets you manage your power use if you’re on a time-based rate plan. Over time, you’ll benefit from managing your charging costs as well!
"Professional, knowledgeable, courteous, took his time updating us on the progress of the installation. I would highly recommend them to anyone."
Electrical appliances like your stove and dryer use more power than a typical outlet provides, so our electricians install the right circuit breaker, wiring, and outlet to let them do their work. The same is true of a Level 2 home EV charger installation, which uses more power to speed up your charge. They’re also more sophisticated than the simple cord that comes with your EV, letting you manage charging to meet your needs.
While the basic electric vehicle charging cord provides an overnight charge that’s good for short trips, a Level 2 connection can do that in an hour. Overnight, you’ll be looking at a full battery for most cars! In the Los Angeles area, you can use a fair amount of EV power just sitting in traffic or trying to get around congestion. You can use commercial charging stations along the way to add to your EV’s range, but unlike a home EV charger installation, you’re waiting somewhere inconvenient, and likely paying more.
Other advantages of home-based EV chargers:
Charging out of the heat or rainy weather
Manage charging of multiple vehicles
Offer EV charging to friends who visit
Less time charging at random locations, more at home
Today’s all-electric homes need increased power capacity for appliances as well as electric vehicle charging. These devices don’t run all the time, but they need to be able to draw the power they require when operating. Our Monkey Wrench Plumbing, Heating, Air & Electric electricians can help you get prepared for the future by adding power capacity when you have your Level 2 charging station installed. We can also help you use renewable or generator power for your EV charging station for increased independence!
