Lectron V-Box Charging Stations
For drivers going electric, charging takes the place of traditional gas station fill-ups. But the impact of EV adoption goes far beyond the way you fuel your vehicle. With the advent of bidirectional charging, your EV can now be used to power your home—and the possibilities for additional applications are practically limitless.
There are three types of electric vehicle chargers: Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3—also known as Direct Current Fast Charging (DCFC).
Typically included with your EV purchase, these home chargers plug into a standard 120-volt electrical outlet but only provide 3-5 miles of charging per hour.
Level 2 chargers are found in both residential and commercial settings. They’re popular for home charging since they can fully replenish your EV battery while you sleep.
These charging stations replenish your battery to about 80% in 30 minutes but are found exclusively in commercial settings and not available for home installation.
Learn about Level 2 charging and its role in home electrification.
Once your home charger is up and running, consider adding a battery energy storage system and rooftop solar panels. You can charge your battery system from the public grid, your solar panels—and even your EV, if it’s equipped with bidirectional charging.
Store power to use during peak hours when utility rates are higher—or if the grid goes down.
