What is a Level 2 charger?

Level 2 chargers are common because they support charge rates of roughly 25 miles of range per hour. They require the installation of a 240-volt outlet by a qualified electrician and provide flexibility due to their faster charging speed.

What is a DCFC?

A Direct Current Fast Charger, also known as a Level 3 charger, is most commonly located along well-traveled public thruways and can provide up to 80% of a vehicle’s charging need in 1 to 2 hours depending on the speed of the charger and the size and level of the battery.
