EV CHARGER BRANDS.

We install a wide range of brands from Tesla to ChargePoint and are experienced in a wide range of EV charger installations.

It’s not just about the brand; it’s about understanding your vehicle’s needs and your home’s electrical capacity.

Of course you want to charge at home as much as possible. Firstly, you can charge your vehicle during downtime, and secondly, charging at home is significantly more cost-effective.

When thinking about your home EV charger, you need to keep in mind three key aspects: the capacity of the household circuit it will connect to, the power output of the charging unit itself, and the charging speed that your electric vehicle is equipped to manage.

Mapping The Electrification Of Your EV Journey

What is a EV Fast Charger?

Fast chargers, or Level 2 chargers, are the game-changers in electric vehicle (EV) technology, significantly reducing charging time from hours to mere minutes. Unlike the Level 1 chargers that come standard with most EVs and plug into a regular household outlet, Level 2 chargers operate on a higher voltage, offering a much quicker and efficient charging experience. This means more time driving and less time waiting for your vehicle to charge. Perfect for home installation, these chargers make owning an EV in San Diego not just feasible but truly convenient.

Do you have the room in your panel?

When considering an EV charger installation, it’s essential to evaluate your home’s electrical capacity. Most older homes in San Diego are equipped with electrical panels sized at around 100 to 200 amps, while newer homes may have panels with a higher capacity. Knowing the available capacity is crucial, as a fully functional panel might not have enough room for an EV charger. That may lead to the need for a panel upgrade, especially if you want to add more electric equipment in the near future.

However, don’t let a full panel deter you. There is an innovative solution that lies in the Electric Vehicle Energy Management System (EVEMS), a technology that enables the installation of an EV charger without the need for a panel upgrade. This system intelligently manages your home’s electrical load, allowing the charger to be connected even when it seems like there’s no capacity left, ensuring you can enjoy the benefits of an EV without worrying about your home’s current electrical setup. *This solution is not for everyone so let’s chat.
