home charger

Domestic power station

A home charger is a device for recharging batteries at a residence rather than at a commercial location.

The term most commonly refers to electric vehicle charging equipment installed in a garage or driveway: We had a home charger installed before the car arrived.

It also applies to standard chargers for phones, laptops, or other devices kept at home, as distinct from those carried for travel or kept at work.
