It really is that simple, and if you have a short commute, can charge your car for many hours at a time, then you may be suited for a level one charger. It has the lowest cost to charge, as it doesn’t require a dedicated circuit and uses 110-120-volt AC power already found in your home. It will charge 4 to 6 miles of range per hour. To put it in perspective, if you drive 30 miles per day, and only need to “top off” for extended hours overnight, Level 1 charging may suffice. However, charging a long-range vehicle from empty to full could take up to four days. While Level 1 charging is definitely possible, it’s not practical in most cases, especially if you’re trying to charge the EV’s battery in full.
