Electrify America Level 2 EV Car Charger

Purchased (Affiliate Links)

We recently bought and installed the Electrify America Level 2 EV Car Charger because we were told by the car dealer that this was the one to have installed at home. We wanted to have an efficient way to charge our EV without always having to be reliant on crowded public charging stations, and long waits, when we are commuting to work. 

Electrify America Level 2 EV Car Charger is: WiFi Enabled, 16 to 40 Amp, 240V, UL Listed, Energy Star, Indoor/Outdoor, 24-Foot Cable, NEMA Plug, Remote Access, App Control. It can be installed inside or outside, and it didn't take our electrician much time to install it outside of our house. Nota Bene: Our electrician couldn't beat Amazon's price for this charger, and we were able to earn points and redeem points– therefore, this was even less expensive for us.

We have really made a tremendous effort to live as sustainably as we can, and getting rid of one of our combustion engine cars, in favor of an EV, was a big step in that direction. Eventually we plan to replace our other car with an EV, but for now we will radically reduce our very expensive monthly gasoline bill. This is one of the very best purchases that we made this year, second only to the car itself.

  1. Today I read an article about a popular attraction in Detroit that has set up charging stations. They are charging $50 for the session. I don't know enough about EV but that seems higher than gasoline is. Glad to know about this home option if we change auto types.

    1. That is higher than I have ever heard of, that isn't economical at all! It definitely is worth installing a charger at home, plus once can sign up for special rates for charging at certain hours. You just have to contact your electricity provider when you purchase or lease an EV!
