The GOAT of electric solutions, you cannot purchase an EV without considering what Tesla has to offer.
Moonlight Recommendation: If you are buying a Tesla, we recommend that you stick to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) brand and purchase a wall charger directly from Tesla. They are the most affordable chargers and highest rated products on the market. One you purchase a Wall Connector, our experts would be happy to install the product at your place.
Note: It is important to buy the charger directly from Tesla, buying from a third party online may nullify your warranty.
