EV Channels Review
This video provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to Level 2 EV charging at home, using the new ElectrIQ Level 2 Charger as a primary example. The reviewer highlights the benefits of Level 2 charging over Level 1 for most users, emphasizing its speed and convenience for daily use, and contrasting it with the often frustrating experience of public DC fast charging. The ElectrIQ unit is praised for its smart features, including app control, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, RFID security, and voice prompts. Installation is demonstrated as straightforward, particularly the plug-in NEMA 1450 version, though professional installation is recommended for hardwired units. A minor initial issue with charging speed was resolved the next day, with the unit ultimately delivering the expected amperage. The reviewer concludes that the ElectrIQ charger is a well-packaged, easy-to-install, and feature-rich option for home EV charging, recommending it to viewers with the capability to install a Level 2 charger.
