Different technologies compete to satisfy electric car buyers. Level 1 Chargers: Use a 120 volt AC power source and a popular power outlet. They supply approximately four kilowatts of force to an electric vehicle, charging between four and five miles of diversity depending on the time. They would possibly be enough for low-mileage drivers who also have access to public chargers. Level 2 Chargers: Use a 2-volt AC power source and a plug required through more rugged appliances, such as a central air conditioner. They generate approximately 7.2 kW of strength, but charge diversity rates depending on the vehicle. Electric cars can generally charge 20 to 30 miles of diversity consistently with the time in Tier 2 chargers, which can be installed at home or in public parking lots. Fast DC Charging: These infrequently called Level 3 systems require high-force installation at public charging stations. Typical DC chargers generate a force of five0 kW to 1five0 kW, but charge rates vary by battery and vehicle software. Ultra-fast DC chargers adapt more, not unusual, and can deliver up to 2fi0 kW at Tesla stations and up to 3five0 kW at non-Tesla stations. Depending on the force and vehicle, DC chargers charge between 60 and 300 miles of diversity, according to partial time. Source: EVgo, Tesla
