# EV Charging Time Calculator

> How long does an EV take to charge at a wall box, a household socket or a fast charger? With charging losses, finish time, cost and added range.

Battery size, charging power and current state of charge are enough to estimate when the car will be ready. The calculator also accounts for charging losses, which are noticeable on a household socket in particular.

## How it works

1. Pick an example such as "11 kW wall box / 60 kWh" or enter your own values.
2. Set current and target state of charge in percent.
3. Read charging time, finish time and cost.

## FAQ

### Why does my car charge slower than calculated?

Many cars charge much more slowly above roughly 80%, and cold weather slows the battery further. The numbers are a guide.

### How long does it take on a household socket?

At about 2.3 kW, a 50 kWh battery takes roughly 14 to 15 hours from 20 to 80%. On an 11 kW wall box it is around 3 hours.
