In this third episode, Maddie researches home chargers and gets one installed.

Here’s the third episode of the Fully Charged Show’s 6 part series “Maddie Goes Electric” – a beginner’s guide to electric cars.

In this episode Maddie gets a home charge point installed! After some EV research at the Rightcharge comparison website, she has arranged a visit from engineer Paul who will be installing an electric car charger at her new home.

Whilst the installation is in progress Maddie puts some newbie questions to Charlie from Rightcharge:

  • Where can you find out and compare suitable electric car chargers?
  • What are the benefits of home electric car chargers?
