**Location**: Make sure you pick a spot that’s convenient for parking your EV. Ideally, it should be close to your garage or driveway, and not too far from your electrical panel.

**Electrical Capacity**: Check if your home’s electrical system can handle the extra load. You might need an upgrade to your panel or wiring to support faster charging.

**Charger Type**: Decide if you want a Level 1 (standard outlet) or Level 2 charger. Level 2 is faster but requires more installation work, while Level 1 is easier but slower.

**Permits and Regulations**: Look into any local building codes or permits you might need. Some places have specific requirements for installing charging stations.
