Installed a 40amp car charger
(thelemmy.club)
Installed a 40amp circuit for the EVs after charging a PHEV for 5 years and a BEV truck for almost a year on a single 15amp circuit.
50ft x 8 AWG x 4 wires isn't cheap ($1.32/ft with tax), plus conduit, straps, breaker, wet location boxes and outlet cover and the extra cost for an EV rated outlet.
Wasn't room between the post and the garage door king stud for a flush mount box, oh well.
I'll pay the electrician for a proper hard-wired charger when we upgrade service and run it from the main panel instead.
Yes, sorry if I wasn't clear. It's the car that does this, not the charger. But the reason you might want level 2 is that in the scheduled charging situation, level 1 might not have enough time to provide enough energy for your daily commute. (But even if you have e.g. 40 mile daily commute and can only charge 25 miles overnight, you might still be fine to make it to the weekend and make up the difference)
