More Tampa Bay homeowners are installing Level 2 charging because it’s the difference between “adding a little range” and reliably recharging at home.

Hillsborough County averages 1.2 million lightning strikes per year, and the combination of extreme heat, humidity, salt air, and aging housing stock creates electrical safety risks that homeowners in Hyde Park, Old Northeast, Historic Kenwood, and Carrollwood should take seriously.
