Home Charging

Any one who had bought a home charging station? I have found one 32 A charger. Which I hope would shorten the charge time about 50%.
Anyone with experiences?

The onboard charger in the car only takes 16 Amps so you don´t get any benefit from chosing a 32 Amp charger.
Go for a 16Amps charger instead.

I have installed a 16A mode 3 homecharger from Circontrol, CCL-WBC, cost about 6000 SEK.
Chargingtime is 3 hours 15 min. You have to have a solid installation in your house and a dedicated circuit for the charger.

An idea might be to get an adjustable EVSE-cable. (6/10/16A) but you can facing trouble with overload and heating of the outlet.

There's a good comparison chart linked in the toolbar at the top of the site (compare ev chargers). It will help you find one with max output and price once you decide on what you want!

Difference in price between a 3Kw and 6Kw L2 charging system is peanuts. Go for the 6kw so you don't have to purchase another charger for the larger EV in your future.
