the Slate Auto truck is my first jump into EVs, can't wait for it to arrive!
but I’m curious about the charging setup
are you guys installing a Level 2 charger at home, or just sticking with a standard 110V wall outlet?

I’m thinking of trying the trickle charge first to see if it covers my daily miles. what’s everyone’s plan for keeping their Slate topped off?
 
I just got my first EV, and I tried out the 110V trickle charging at first. It works fine for quick daily trips, but honestly, having a Level 2 charger at home really eases the morning stress with a full charge no more panicking.
 
My Slate is on its way too! I plan to use trickle charging at first, just to see how it handles my daily mileage. But I know I’ll end up getting a Level 2 eventually it’s like giving your truck a good cup of coffee, and it charges way faster.
 
I started off using a regular wall outlet on my first EV, which worked okay, but switching to Level 2 made a huge difference.
It's way quicker, and I no longer have those late-night worries about whether it’s charged.
