With many customers considering their first EV, it's up to the dealership sales representatives to answer questions and address knowledge gaps about this new technology. To help, we have compiled some of the most common frequently asked questions asked by dealership customers and new EV owners before buying their first EV.</span></p><h2><span style="background-color:">What is the difference between Level 1, Level 2, and Direct Current Fast Charging (DCFC) stations?</span></h2><p><span style="background-color:">Before we begin, it should be noted that the term “charger” is a bit unique when talking about EVs. </span> <span style="background-color:">Each EV comes with an on-board charger inside the vehicle. Level 1 and Level 2 charging stations simply provide alternating current (AC) electricity to the vehicle’s on-board charger, which then converts AC to direct current (DC) electricity and charges the battery. </span> <span style="background-color:">The on-board charger is different from an external EV charging station, also referred to as EV Supply Equipment or EVSE. In most cases, the word "charger" refers to a charging station or cable that delivers power to the vehicle.</span></p><h3>Level 1 chargers</h3><p><span style="background-color:">These are the charging cables that come with most EVs. They are small enough to carry in a vehicle truck and plug into a regular 120 volt wall outlet. </span> <span style="background-color:">Generally speaking, they will take 12+ hours to fully charge an EV. (It could be several dozen hours if they are charging a battery from empty.)</span></p><h3>Level 2 chargers</h3><p><span style="background-color:">These are the next step up in charging equipment. For a faster home charging experience, EV drivers can purchase </span><a href="/blog/why-level-2-electric-vehicle-chargers-are-the-dominant-choice-for-ev-charging" uuid="e686f8b0-c04e-4bbe-861f-6b843c0abc9a" target="_self" linktype="story" story="[object Object]"><span style="background-color:">Level 2 chargers</span></a><span style="background-color:"> such as the </span><a href="https://blinkcharging.com/products/hq-150-residential-ev-charging-station/" linktype="url"><span style="background-color:">Blink HQ 150</span></a><span style="background-color:"> or </span><a href="/products/hq-200" uuid="966c0633-7ed3-49b9-840a-c2620096253e" target="_self" linktype="story" story="[object Object]"><span style="background-color:">HQ 200</span></a><span style="background-color:">. In addition, most commercial public, multi-unit, and workplace charging stations will be Level 2 chargers. </span> <span style="background-color:">Depending on the model, Level 2 charging stations provide up to 80amp to fully charge an EV in 4-8 hours, though some vehicles may take longer. Level 2 chargers can either plug into a 240 volt electrical outlet, or they can be directly wired into an existing electrical system. Multi-unit and public chargers will virtually always be hardwired into an electrical system. </span> <span style="background-color:">As seen in the graphic above, AC Level 1 and Level 2 charging stations send AC power to the onboard charger, which then converts to DC power to charge the battery. </span></p><h3>DC fast chargers (DCFC)</h3><p><span style="background-color:">Unlike Level 1 and </span><a href="/blog/why-level-2-electric-vehicle-chargers-are-the-dominant-choice-for-ev-charging" uuid="e686f8b0-c04e-4bbe-861f-6b843c0abc9a" target="_self" linktype="story" story="[object Object]"><span style="background-color:">Level 2 chargers</span></a><span style="background-color:">, DC fast chargers can charge a vehicle in under an hour. That's because DCFC transfers DC power directly from the energy grid into the vehicle battery, bypassing the onboard charger.

Therefore, it is more cost- and time-efficient for EV drivers to use direct current fast charging until the battery reaches 80 percent, and then continue on their trip. It can take about as long to charge the last 10 percent of an EV battery as the first 90 percent.”</span> <span style="background-color:">When talking to your car buyers, it's important to mention that 80% of charging will be done at home, and many workplaces are now installing commercial chargers as an employee amenity.</span></p><h2><span style="background-color:">How do I find a charger?</span></h2><p><span style="background-color:">Finding a charger is relatively easy.

Some new drivers may find a demonstration helpful on how to locate a charger using these popular charging apps.</span></p><h2><span style="background-color:">Can my Tesla use non-Tesla charging stations?</span></h2><p><span style="background-color:">Yes, but Tesla drivers must use an adapter.</span></p><h2><span style="background-color:">Can I use a DCFC?</span></h2><p><span style="background-color:">No, if you have a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). Yes, if you have a battery electric vehicle (BEV).</span> <span style="background-color:">In order to use a DCFC, you will need to make sure you have the matching charging port. While there is a standard plug for Level 1 and Level 2 charging, there are multiple charging standards for DCFC. </span> <span style="background-color:">The DOT says this about the different charging port types: </span> <span style="background-color:">“Different vehicles have different charge ports. For DCFC, the Combined Charging System (CCS) connector is based on an open international standard and is common on vehicles manufactured in North America and Europe; the CHArge de Move (CHAdeMO) connector is most common for Japanese manufactured vehicles. Tesla vehicles have a unique connector that works for all charging speeds, including at Tesla’s “Supercharger” DCFC stations, while non-Tesla vehicles require adapters at these stations.”</span></p><h2><span style="background-color:">How much will it cost to charge my EV?</span></h2><p><span style="background-color:">It depends. </span> <span style="background-color:">This is because pricing varies by location and by who owns the charger. Many public chargers are owned by the property host, not the station manufacturer/network provider. </span> <span style="background-color:">For example, Blink charging stations are often owned by the site host, who is responsible for setting the price for the power.
