Which EV Chargers Are Available for Homes?
- Level 1: Level 1 charging cords come standard with most electric vehicles and plug into any 120-volt three-prong household outlet — no special installation required. While convenient, Level 1 delivers roughly 40 miles of range after an eight-hour overnight charge, making it best suited for low-mileage drivers or as a backup option.
- Level 2: For homeowners who want the best ev chargers for home use, Level 2 is the clear choice. These home ev chargers require a dedicated 240-volt circuit — similar to what powers an electric dryer or water heater — and range from 20 to 80 amps in output. Soltari typically recommends 40 or 60 amp Level 2 home ev chargers, which provide the ideal balance of charging speed and electrical compatibility. Our licensed residential ev charger installation team handles the full job: panel assessment, circuit upgrade, permitting, and professional installation — all to California code.
Can I Charge My EV with Solar?
An EV charger for home installation is simply another electrical load on your home’s system — and a well-designed solar array can offset your total household electricity use, including the energy needed to charge your vehicle. Soltari specializes in pairing the best home ev chargers with residential solar systems, creating a seamless, self-powered setup that’s both clean and cost-efficient.
By combining a residential ev charger with a Soltari solar system, California homeowners can eliminate fuel costs and replace variable utility rates with clean, fixed-cost solar energy. The result is true energy independence — and one of the smartest long-term investments available to EV owners in Santa Cruz and across California.
