The Benefits of Level 2 Charging: Faster, Smarter, and More Efficient Home EV Charging

Why Upgrade to Level 2 EV Charging?

If you’re still relying on a Level 1 charger, you’re missing out on faster, more efficient, and cost-effective EV charging at home. A Level 2 EV charger significantly reduces charge times, improves your daily driving convenience, and optimizes energy usage—allowing you to power your EV on your schedule, right at home.

What is Level 2 Charging?

A Level 2 EV charger operates at 240 volts, compared to the 120-volt Level 1 charger that comes standard with most electric vehicles. The higher voltage output allows for faster charging speeds, meaning you can charge your EV 4 to 10 times faster than with a standard wall outlet.

Key Benefits of Level 2 Charging

 

  • Faster Charging Speeds – Get 12–32 miles of range per hour, compared to just 2–4 miles per hour with Level 1. No more waiting overnight for a full charge.
  • Convenience at Home – Charge whenever you need without relying on public stations. Start your day with a full battery, every day.
  • Cost Savings – Take advantage of off-peak electricity rates and eliminate costly public charging fees. Many states, including California, offer rebates for installing home chargers.
  • Optimized Battery Health – Level 2 chargers offer smart charging capabilities, ensuring efficient power flow that extends battery lifespan while avoiding overcharging.
  • Eco-Friendly & Energy Efficient – Charge at home with solar integration, renewable energy sources, or during low-demand grid hours to reduce environmental impact.
  • Universal Compatibility – Whether you drive a Tesla, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Chevrolet Bolt, or BMW i4, Level 2 chargers support all major EV brands.

Where Can You Install a Level 2 Charger?

A home Level 2 charger can be installed in:

  • Garages (most common location for home charging)
  • Driveways (outdoor weatherproof charging solutions)
  • Carports or dedicated parking areas

With LAProElectrical, we help you determine the best installation location based on distance from your electrical panel, conduit needs, and optimal charging placement.
