When the light displays green, the charge has been completed, and the station is available for another EV driver to use.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">What happens if the power goes out?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When the power turns back on, the unit goes through its reboot and test cycles. Upon successful completion, it will automatically return to its \u201cwaiting to charge\u201d state. If a vehicle was charging when the power went out, the driver would need to restart the charge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">What if the station won\u2019t turn on?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If the station won\u2019t turn on or the screen does not display, the breaker feeding the unit has been tripped or turned off.

The Blink units can also charge Tesla model vehicles with the Tesla adapter, available directly through Tesla.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">How do I know if my car is charging?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Once a charge has been initiated, the charger port will display blue. The charger screen will also indicate charge status. Many EVs also display the current charging status in the vehicle\u2019s dash.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">How much time is needed to charge?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The length of time necessary to charge an EV depends on the rate at which the car can receive a charge. A charge from empty to full on a Level 2 EV charger can take anywhere from a few hours to overnight. Please consult your vehicle owner\u2019s manual for additional information.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">How do I know when the charge is complete?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When the charge is complete, the charger\u2019s port light will display green, and the charger screen will indicate that the charge has been completed. <strong>It is highly suggested<\/strong> that Blink members opt in for communications (text message, email, or both) to receive alerts that the charge has been completed. <strong>Please remember to move your vehicle from the EV spot so that others may charge.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">What if I need to remove the charging cord before charging is complete?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Simply press down the lock release button on the charger connector, unplug it from the car, and return it to the station.
