Best Level 2 Home EV Charger, 7kw/11kw/19kw
The RUIHUA Level 2 Home EV Charger is a smart charger for residential units, vertical commercial, with mobile app connectivity, and portable charging solutions. It can deliver between 3.7kW and 22kW of power, depending on the charger model and the charging capacity of the EV.
240V alternating current (AC) is used, which is higher than the 120V used by Level 1 chargers (Level 1 chargers are the type that plug into a regular household outlet). For most electric vehicles, Level 2 chargers can be fully charged in about 4 to 8 hours (good for overnight charging).
And most Level 2 chargers can be wall-mounted or free-standing brackets, providing flexible mounting location options. Most Level 2 chargers use the SAE J1772 connector, which is compatible with most electric vehicles, except Tesla. Tesla owners can use an adapter to connect their vehicle to a Level 2 charger.

A: Yes, you can install a Level 2 EV charger at home if you have access to a 240V electrical outlet or have the ability to install one. It is recommended to hire a qualified electrician to ensure proper installation and compliance with local electrical codes and safety standards.
Q: Do I need to use a special adapter for my Level 2 charger?
A: No, most EVs come with standard charging cables that can be used with Level 2 chargers. However, it is important to check your vehicle specifications to confirm compatibility.
Q: What are the incentives for installing a Level 2 charger?
A: Many national and regional, state and local governments offer financial incentives to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles, particularly EV charging infrastructure. incentives for EV charging include tax credits, rebates and grants.
