This video explores the benefits of home charging for electric vehicles (EVs). It discusses the convenience, cost savings, and environmental advantages of installing a home charging station. The video also provides tips on how to set up a home charger and maximize its efficiency.
Going electric has many benefits, including reduced or zero emissions, smooth performance, and fuel savings. And the best way to maximize your savings is by charging at home. The cheapest time to charge is typically at night when you're sleeping. It's also convenient. Charging at a slower speed overnight is better for your battery than using frequent fast charging at public charging stations. Level 3 or DC fast charging stations can charge your EV's battery at a much higher rate, but it can make your car's battery deteriorate slightly faster. Charging at home takes longer but is gentler on the battery. One of the major reasons to move to electric is reduced energy costs. Many utility companies provide special electric car rates or reduced rates for off-peak hours, which reduces the cost of charging. You can maximize your savings by programming when your EV charges. Many electric cars and many Level 2 chargers can be set to charge during reduced-rate hours. This means you can take advantage of reduced costs without having to remember when to plug in.
