L1 is 120V, at least my PHEV with 120V is level 1 I think.
Level 1 is 120v & 1.2 kW max.
You will only add a few miles per hour of charging depending on the EV.
I think I got 20% overnight at a hotel on the portable charger that came with my Tesla. My Fiat could get 50-60% overnight, but that's only 60miles ;-)
It all comes down to efficiency.
If you get 4 miles/kwh, you get 32 miles from eight hours of L1 charging.
I get 2 miles/kwh, so the same eight hours would only give me 16 miles.
Anyway I just needed to post this:
Oh Lord
Won't you buy me
A Mercedes Benz
My friends all drive Porsches
I must make amends
I work hard all my life
And it comes to no end
So Lord
Won't you buy me
A Mercedes Benz
Since it was available (they had an outlet on every light post) and easy it gave me a little extra to go to breakfast before charging, and make the supercharging a little quicker. Just kind of a nice little free boost. I think having that possibility readily available would be pretty helpful, really. These ones were for engine block heaters, I think. But if I was short of cash, I could just plug in for a long time and hang out.
