Level 1 & 2 EV Chargers For Audi Vehicles
With 80% of electric vehicle charging happening at home, having the right residential charging setup is essential for Audi EV vehicles. Audi provides a mobile charging system with both Level 1 and Level 2 charging capabilities for home use and other locations.
Level 1 Chargers for Audi EVs
The Audi mobile charging system provides Level 1 charging when used with a standard 120-volt household outlet. While convenient, this option offers the slowest charging rate, typically adding only 3 to 4 miles of range per hour. Despite its slower pace compared to other methods, Level 1 charging is an affordable and user-friendly choice for Audi EV owners, requiring minimal installation effort.
Level 2 Chargers for Audi EVs
For faster charging, Audi recommends Level 2 charging solutions. Level 2 chargers operate on a 240-volt circuit, similar to what powers an electric clothes dryer. Depending on the vehicle, Level 2 provides between 12-25 miles of range per hour of charging. The Audi e-tron, for example, can be fully charged in about 9 hours using a Level 2 charger.
Level 2 home charging is the preferred choice for many Audi EV owners seeking the convenience of quickly recharging their batteries overnight. Although it is more expensive than Level 1 charging, many Level 2 chargers come with smart features, such as Wi-Fi connectivity for monitoring and remote access. To ensure safe operation on a dedicated 240-volt circuit, professional installation by a licensed electrician is necessary.
Breakdown of EV Charging Levels
Level 1: 120v 15amp, adds around 4 miles of range per hour
Level 2: 240v 30 amp, adds around 17 miles of range per hour
Level 2 (upgraded): 240v 50amp, adds around 25 miles of range per hour
What to Consider Before Installing an Audi EV Charger at Home
Before installing an Audi electric vehicle charger in your home, it's essential to consider a few key factors. While Audi offers a mobile charging system, you might prefer a dedicated Level 2 charger for quicker charging speeds.
The location of the charger is crucial. Although outdoor installation is possible, Wisconsin's extreme weather conditions make a garage setup preferable when feasible. An attached garage near your electrical panel allows for easier hardwired installation. In contrast, a detached garage may require additional wiring to facilitate charging.
Older Homes & Audi EV Charger Installation
Many older homes feature 100-amp electrical panels, which may not support a Level 2 charger. Our electricians will evaluate whether your panel has the capacity for a dedicated EV charging circuit. While it is possible to charge from a 100-amp panel, upgrading to a 200-amp panel will future-proof your home for greater electrical needs.
