Level 1 charging uses a standard 120-volt outlet. It is best used for plug-in electric hybrid vehicles with small batteries of less than 25 kWh. A level 1 charge may be right for you if you drive your hybrid vehicle sparingly or for short distances. We recommend a higher charge if you drive your hybrid often or daily.

Level 2

Medical - High Density Residential

Power Delivery

3.9-19.2 kW

Range Added Per Hour

12-80 miles

Most hybrid vehicle and commercial facility owners use level 2 charges. Level 2 works great for daily use and can be installed in various spaces, including offices, and large public locations such as shopping plazas and train stations. Though level 2 charges fast, they often require intensive planning and installations to function properly. Complex circuitry and breaker box installation are required.

Level 3

Hotels - AutoDealers

24-300 kW

Level 3 charging is the fastest, most advanced and heavy-duty. Commonly known as "superchargers," level 3 is used almost exclusively for large, heavily populated public spaces like airports and city squares. Level 3 chargers use direct current rather than alternating current.
