Electrify America makes it easier to get charged up

Electrify America (EA) has just made home charging a little bit easier. As you may remember, EA owns one of the largest DC fast charging networks in the US with a $2 billion commitment for network expansion. Through their Electrify Home web store, EA has just added a new level 2 fast charger (right) for your home that can be plugged in to an existing 240v outlet or hard-wired by an electrician. The station sells for $449 (currently, no pun intended) and EA can help with installation scheduling. The station comes with a three-year warranty and EA provides unit servicing. A more than 26-foot cord makes garage placement of your unit easier and makes charging a breeze. LED lights on the unit signal charging status. Electrify America's Level 2 EV Charger provides up to 7.6 kW of charging power for level-2-capable vehicles and provides up to 6 times faster charging than a standard Level 1 charger. At this time, more than 75% of EV owners charge their vehicles at home which makes EA's level-2 offering very timely.
