For most Illinois residents, a Level 2 charger is definitely worth the investment. It dramatically cuts down charging time, making EV ownership much more practical, especially during those long commutes or when you need a quick top-up before heading out in Aurora. You'll enjoy the convenience and potential savings on fuel.
A properly installed Level 2 charger typically lasts between 10 to 15 years. We use durable components and ensure our installations in Illinois are robust, designed to handle daily use and various weather conditions.

While tempting, installing your own Level 2 charger in Illinois without proper electrical knowledge and licensing can be risky.

In Aurora, the cost is influenced by your home's electrical panel capacity, the distance the wiring needs to travel, and any potential structural modifications required.
