The primary difference between a Level 1 and Level 2 EV charger lies in their charging speed and power output, which directly affects how quickly an electric vehicle can recharge.
Level 1:
Level 1 chargers utilise a standard 120-volt outlet, typically found in homes, and deliver around 2 to 5 miles of range per hour of charging, making them ideal for overnight charging or infrequent use.
Level 2:
Level 2 chargers require a 240-volt outlet, similar to those used for large appliances, and can provide about 10 to 60 miles of range per hour, significantly reducing charging time and allowing for faster top-ups during the day. For those who rely on their electric vehicles for daily commuting or longer trips, investing in a Level 2 charger is often the more practical choice.
