Why Choose an Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger?
Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular, as they offer a cleaner, more efficient alternative to traditional gas-powered vehicles. One of the most important components of an EV is the charging setup, and there are several reasons why EV chargers are worth considering.
EV chargers are incredibly convenient and offer a wide range of charging options. Depending on the model, users can charge their vehicles from any kind of outlet, from a simple wall outlet to a higher-end commercial charging station. This makes it easy to charge your vehicle in virtually any situation, from the comfort of your home or on the go.
Depending on the model, some EV chargers can fully charge a vehicle in 2-3 hours, compared to 10-12 hours for a regular wall outlet. This makes it much more convenient and efficient to charge electric vehicles, as it eliminates the need to wait for hours before the vehicle is fully charged.
And probably most widely acknowledged is that EV chargers are much more cost-effective than traditional petorl/diesel-powered vehicles. On average, an EV charger will cost less in electricity costs over its lifespan than a petrol/diesel vehicle. This makes them a great way to save money over time and help protect the environment.

Electric Vehicle Chargers FAQs
How do I charge my plug-in electric vehicle at home?
Charging an EV at home is easy. All you need is a 3-pin plug style home charger, AC charger or fast charger, depending on your make and model of electric car. You may also need additional safety equipment, such as a circuit breaker and ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) to protect against electric shock. Once you have all the necessary equipment, you can simply plug your car into the charger and the charging process will begin automatically.
How long does it take to charge my EV?
The amount of time it takes to charge an electric car depends on the charge level and the type of charger you are using. A 3-pin plug style charger can take up to 18 hours to charge your electric vehicle, standard and fast chargers can take 2 to 4 hours and rapid chargers can take less than an hour for a full charge. Charging times always depend on the specific charger and electric vehicle being considered.
How far can I drive on a single full charge?
Depending on the type of electric car and its specific features, drivers can typically travel anywhere from 70 to 300 miles on a single charge. Ultimately, the range that you can get out of your EV will depend on several factors like battery size, charging speed, driving habits, terrain, weather conditions, and more.
If you’re looking for an efficient way to travel long distances without having to worry about running out of gas or finding a charging station along the way, then an electric car is definitely worth considering. With advances in technology and battery life continually improving over time, drivers are now able to go farther than ever before with an EV.
AC chargers range from 7.4kw to 22kw
DC chargers can start from 25kw and go all the way to 350kw
How much does EV charging cost?
The answer depends on several factors, including the type of charging station you use and your local electricity rate.
3-pin plug style chargers (usually supplied with vehicle) charges at 2.3kw and takes up to 18 hours for a full charge depending on battery levels and size.
Standard AC chargers rated between 3.7kw – 11kw are quicker and usually wall or post mounted and are commonly fitted at domestic properties.
Fast chargers are usually between 11kw – 49kw found at hotels, shopping centres, leisure centres, tourist destinations or car parks used for more than two hours.
Rapid chargers are the quickest way to charge and use DC – they are between 50kw – 150kw and are fitted mainly in short stay areas such as shopping centres, service stations and car parks.
All this information is based on each individual EV as some can accept much higher charging input than others.
