What is the most efficient way to charge my electric vehicle?
Most new electric cars come with a wall charger, these chargers are slow…. very slow with a max speed at around 2.4kW. You can install a fast EV Charger that can charge up to 22kW depending on the electric vehicle you own. These are the most common EV Chargers you will find on the market. In simple terms these EV Chargers use AC power from your house to provide power to the car which then converts it to DC power to be stored. What is better than a fast EV Charger?
