Level 2 EV Charger Installation for All Electric Vehicles in Apex, NC

Upgrade your electric vehicle charging with a Level 2 charger. We install and repair both Tesla’s proprietary Tesla Wall Connector and the more universal J1772 connector. Level 2 chargers operate at 240 volts, significantly cutting down charging times compared to the standard 120-volt Level 1 chargers. For instance, while a Level 1 charger might take about 20-24 hours to fully charge a Tesla Model S, a Level 2 charger can do the job in just 6-8 hours.

Here’s what makes Level 2 chargers an excellent choice for your home:

• Faster Charging Speeds: Reduce downtime with quick, efficient charging that gets your vehicle ready to go much faster.
• Increased Convenience: Charge overnight or simply top off your battery while you handle other tasks at home.
• Versatility: Our Level 2 chargers are suitable for all types of electric vehicles, ensuring compatibility no matter what model you drive.
• Energy Efficiency: Take advantage of off-peak utility rates with smart chargers that can be programmed to charge during the most economical times.

Our certified technicians are experts in the precise installation of these systems, ensuring that your home charging setup is both reliable and optimized to meet the specific demands of your vehicle and home’s electrical capacity.
