The Luxman Level2 EV charger delivers up to 19.2 kW of power at 240V, which is nearly six times faster than a standard Level 1 charger, which is at 1.9 kW on a 120V circuit. The higher power reduces the charging time considerably, with a typical EV gaining 25–30 miles of range per hour, compared to just 3–5 miles per hour on a Level 1 charger.
Battery size is a significant consideration in charging efficiency. Battery packs on most newer EVs range from 40 kWh to 100 kWh, which would require over 40 hours to fully charge with Level 1 charging. The Luxman Level 2 EV charger cuts the time to 4–10 hours, and overnight home charging is a viable solution for daily use. The U.S. Department of Energy, more than 80% of EV owners charge at home, and Level 2 chargers significantly increase convenience.
Charging speed is determined by electrical infrastructure. A Level 1 charger employs a standard 15A household outlet, which hinders current flow and diminishes charging efficiency. In contrast, the Luxman Level 2 EV charger supports up to 80A, allowing a higher current flow to attain maximum power transfer. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) found that charge times are reduced by up to 70% through higher amperage, which makes charging cycles more efficient for frequent drivers.
Energy efficiency impacts total savings. According to a 2023 study conducted by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), Level 2 chargers are 95% efficient and lose less power compared to Level 1 chargers, which average some 85% efficiency. The variance over time conserves electricity cost and improves the long-term aspect of charging performance.
Public networks rely on Level 2 chargers to deliver fast and reliable charging. ChargePoint and Electrify America are two of the networks that deploy thousands of Level 2 stations, powering more than 14 million EVs across North America. A number of organizations, including Walmart and Marriott, have installed Level 2 chargers to attract EV consumers, with charging becoming more accessible.
Durability ensures long-term reliability. The Luxman Level 2 EV charger is built for over 10,000 charge cycles, which equates to over 25 years of daily charging. ChargePoint explains that lower-quality chargers break down within five years due to heavy use and electrical stress, so high-cycle tolerance is a very significant factor for EV owners.
Elon Musk once stated, “The faster you can charge, the more convenient an EV becomes.” With higher power output, greater efficiency, and quicker charge times, the Luxman Level 2 EV charger is an improved solution for residential, workplace, and public charging installations, ensuring that drivers spend less time waiting and more time on the road.
