The Benefits of a Level 2 Home Charger
A professionally installed Level 2 charger is a game-changer for EV owners and vacation property owners in Holden Beach, Sunset Beach, and the communities of Wilmington and Leland.
Faster Charging: Charge your EV up to 10 times faster than a standard wall outlet. Typically 35 to 45 miles of range per hour.
Convenience: Forget about planning your day around public charging stations. Just plug in when you get home and you’re ready to go.
Increased Home Value: An EV charger is a major selling point for future buyers as the market for electric vehicles grows.
Vacation rentals regularly sell EV Charging passes for $50 or add a nightly charge of $10-20 per night. Major platforms already offer a filter for ‘EV friendly properties’.
Take Advantage of Tax Credits: Homeowners can receive a federal tax credit for 30% of the cost of installation, up to $1,000.
BEMC and Duke Energy regularly offer incentives to customers.
Our Certified EV Charger Installation Process
We make the process simple and transparent. We handle all types of chargers, including Tesla Wall Connectors, ChargePoint, JuiceBox, and more. We also offer custom installs to keep your Level 2 Charging station safe and convenient.
Consultation & Load Calculation: We discuss your driving habits, vehicle type, and assess your home’s current electrical capacity.
Panel Assessment: Many homes, especially older ones like those in Southport and Wilmington, may require an electrical panel upgrade to safely handle the continuous load of an EV charger. We’ll tell you exactly what you need.
Charger Installation: We install a dedicated 240-volt circuit and your new Level 2 charger in your garage or other preferred location. Most chargers can be installed outdoors and we can customize the location with a locked enclosure or recess the charger so that it is protected from damage.
Vacation rental properties from Ocean Isle Beach and Holden Beach to Carolina and Wrightsville Beach can offer worry free EV ready rentals reliably because we use salt air resistant materials to ensure the coastal climate does not damage your charging station.
Testing & Education: We test the charger to ensure it’s delivering the correct power and show you how to use it most effectively
Why an Engineer Should Install Your Charger
An EV charger is one of the most demanding appliances in your home. If it’s not installed correctly using the right material, it can overload your system, cause nuisance trips, or even create a fire hazard. My background as an Electrical Engineer means I have the expertise to perform precise load calculations and design a system that is both safe and efficient. Don’t trust this important job to a handyman or just any electrician who will likely install a 40 amp dryer plug. The results can be catastrophic failure or a fire. The one in the photo was less than two years old. We install dedicated 60amp 240volt circuits to safely deliver 48 amp continuous charge for your level 2 charger.
