🏄🌳Are you thinking about picking up a Rivian R1S, R1T, or are you waiting for the new 2026 Rivian R2?
One of the first questions many ☀️Ventura County EV owners ask is: What's the best and safest way to charge at home?
A standard 120V wall outlet will work, but charging is very slow due to the large capacity of modern EV batteries. Most EV and Rivian owners choose a ⚡Level 2 charger for faster overnight charging and everyday convenience.
While most EV charger brands will work with your Rivian, the Rivian Wall Charger with app integration can add approximately 25 to 40 miles of range per hour when installed on a properly sized circuit. That means you can plug in at night and wake up ready to drive. The Tesla Wall Connector is also an excellent option for homeowners looking for broad vehicle compatibility.
At Jake Electric, we help homeowners throughout Moorpark, Thousand Oaks, Camarillo, Simi Valley, and surrounding communities install dedicated EV charging circuits and home charging equipment safely and professionally.
Thinking about EVs? Charging at home is a game-changer.
