EV charging cost calculator

The charger is the cheap part. The install is where the money and the mistakes are. Four questions gets you the right amperage, hardwired vs plug-in, whether your panel can take it, and an honest installed range. We don't sell chargers, so the number points at the truth, not a bigger purchase.

What size is your electrical panel?

The main breaker rating, usually printed on the panel door. Not sure is a fine answer.

How far is the panel from where you park?

A longer run means more conduit and labor, and detached garages mean a trench or a long pull.

What is your car's max AC charge rate?

Listed on the spec sheet as the onboard charger, in amps or kW. A charger faster than this adds nothing.

How much do you drive on a normal day?

This decides how much charging speed you actually need overnight, and often it is less than people expect.

Answer the four questions and your estimate shows up here. No email needed.
