Top EV Charging Stations

Will you be ready when government laws require that electric only vehicles be sold to consumers? Here are top-rated EV charging stations that you can use at home, work, at the cottage or take with you on the road.

Best consumer EV Chargers. Do you or are you planning to own an electric car? Have you thought about accessories such as charging equipment? Where can you get something faster than the slow-speed charger cable that comes with the EV?

There are Wi-Fi connected smart-chargers that perform tasks like scheduling and sending notifications, and non-smart basic chargers that only supply power to the car.

There are models that are better suited for outdoor applications, some with longer cables, some that need to be hard-wired while others plug in to an outlet. Some are powered by solar panels, (yes, just like in the movie "The Martian"). Some are made for commercial use such as public charging stations. In this case, you can provide your customers with the convenience of EV charging while they shop at your store, eat at your restaurant or spend the night at your motel. It's even possible that "drive-in theatres" could make a comeback where you can fill-up your battery (charge) while you enjoy the show and have a snack or meal served right to your car.

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Different consumers and different electric vehicles have different charging needs. Not everybody needs the highest power output, since every charger can recharge a car overnight, and unlike with gasoline-engine cars, few drivers wait until the battery is nearly empty.

Here are some top choices for home and business EV chargers with prices ranging from about $400 and up.
