BreezEV Charging: Electrical Vehicle Charging, Optimized

 As people around the world look to what they can do to reduce their carbon footprints, electric vehicles have grown in popularity.

Electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe emissions and modern electric vehicles have high-performance electric drive components. While purchase prices remain high, increased production and federal tax credits have lowered the overall prices of electric vehicles, making them more attractive to many.

In short, there are many draws to electric vehicles - and another is infrastructure - with a caveat. It is true that the electric grid is typically accessible from most places where drivers park their cars - which means, theoretically, there’s a “gas station” at every stop.

The thing is, while electricity is not scarce, charging stations are still forthcoming.

BreezEV electric vehicle charging, by Light Efficient Design, is doing its part to make electric vehicle charging stations more accessible to all.

Here’s what you need to know about BreezEV charging stations, which are perfect for multiple housing units, municipalities, retail and commercial locations, and more.

BreezEV: The Solution to Electric Vehicle Charging

BreezEV’s charging stations come with two 48-amp wall-mount charging units. These are among the most common chargers encountered at public charging stations, and for reference, many electrical vehicles can be fully recharged in about 7 hours using one. At 48 amps, many vehicles can expect to get between 12 and 60 miles of range per hour of charging.

Their Level 2 charging stations are compatible with every electric vehicle manufacturer and are loaded with features, including a built-in LCD screen, an LED status indicator, and an RFID card reader. Connection is easy, either via 4G LTE cellular or an ethernet connection.

Their electric vehicle chargers feature a side-by-side pedestal mounting configuration with cable management that protects the cables and extends their lifespans by keeping them off the ground. They feature natural cooling and are protected by UV-resistant housing, so they can be used both indoors and outdoors.

These EV chargers are physically durable, too, with an Ingress Protection rating of IP65 and an Impact Resistance rating of IK08. They’re rated to 95% relative humidity, can be stored between -40℉ and 158℉ and operated between -22℉ and 122℉.

BreezEV also offers numerous benefits to its partners. They’re easy to install, and easy to connect, and the administrator can manage who gets to control the chargers. BreezEV charging stations are also supported by 24/7/365 site host and driver support. (Service plans are available and sold separately.)

They also offer numerous additional benefits. They are hassle-free to implement and use, can provide charging schedules and availability notifications as well as customizable charging costs, and can offer dynamic price management and data reporting.

For retail and commercial locations that implement them, they offer additional features, such as employee discounts and public charging cost offsets. RFID access is secure, and thanks to availability notifications, planning around employee work schedules is now a possibility.

The pedestal kit includes the lower pedestal main section and cover, junction box and terminal block, base plate, cable management cover and tensioners, and hardware, including bolts and washers for mounting to existing concrete.

The accessory kit includes power wires, fittings, charging cables, a J1772 holster, and mounting screws.

Moreover, a purchase of a BreezEV charging station comes with a 1-year subscription to AmpUp PRO.
