Basic question about charging

My 120 is consistently at 13 amps. Our state, Chicago restarts our rebates Jan 1st. Our rebates are steep and well worth the wait. Will live with the slow charger till then. Since I don't drive daily and have many free level 2 around me it's just not a problem. I just don't go very low either so I can get back up to 80/90 usually overnight or maybe sometimes in like 12-15 hours.

Also as stated above I would use an industrial Nema like Hubble or Bryant. Think Bryant is made by Hubble actually.
Also check into the federal tax credit: Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit (Section 30C), which provides a tax credit for 30% of the cost of purchasing and installing an EV charger at your home, up to a maximum of $1,000. There are some restrictions on location (non-urban), but unlike most state and utility rebates, it covers the wiring and other related upgrades as well.
