Charging an electric car instead of stopping at a gas station does require a slight mental change in how you power your vehicle. You can’t just fuel up in five minutes anymore. Instead, it should be treated more like a phone or tablet where you take every opportunity to charge it up so that it is ready to go when you need it.
Let AccuTemp install your electric car home charging station in Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana, and surrounding areas.
There are many choices when it comes to home car charging stations. They come in many shapes and sizes, but the charging station’s voltage is the most important feature. Higher voltage charging stations mean your car will charge faster, but installing it may be more expensive. It’s up to you; our expert electricians will help you choose what’s best for your vehicle.
Most electric cars have adaptors to use standard 120-volt outlets, just like you have in your home. On average, if you charge your car for nine hours, you can get about 40 miles out of that charge.
Is 40 miles enough distance for your average day? If you don’t drive much or have a short commute, this may be plenty for you, and you don’t have to invest in a more expensive higher-voltage charging station.
240-volt outlets are the same kinds of outlets that your washing machine uses. They average around ten miles distance per hour of charging. The exact distance and charge will depend on your model, but this is a reasonable average estimate.
If you don’t have access to a charging station at work, have a longer commute, stay out after work, or just want to have the flexibility of faster charging times and further distances whenever you need it, this outlet might be the best option.
Some electric vehicles have customized ports and charging stations designed for that specific model or brand of car, such as a Tesla. These may charge your vehicle faster or provide more compatability. If you need a custom or specialized charging station, our electricians can help you find the one that’s best for you.
When you schedule a charging station installation with AccuTemp, you can trust that you will get an experienced technician every time.
Our team of electric vehicle (EV) installers will listen to your needs and help you determine the best charging station for you. Our expert electricians in New Orleans and Baton Rouge will run the wiring and install it quickly so you can start using the charging station as soon as possible.
