A Bright future
Green Lifestyle
Enabling a greener, more affordable lifestyle is important to Splitvolt, not only because it makes life easier and more convenient, but also because of the direct impact EVs have on the climate and environment.
Owning an EV reduces your carbon footprint. Electric vehicles reduce direct emissions by 100%, making their overall life cycle emissions reduced by 70-90% depending on region, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
The more mainstream car buyers who use EVs, the bigger the positive impact to air quality, greenhouse gasses, and overall economic efficiency we have on the planet. This is further facilitated by the accelerating shift to sustainable sources for power which are more cost effective and more sustainable.
Splitvolt embodies and supports this movement of sustainability and efficiency by utilizing a virtual organization model and allowing work from home for our team.
Founder's Story
In a nutshell, the company and our highly innovative product concept sprouted from the “Ah-ha” moment and realization that there was a creative and compelling way to solve the one remaining challenge affecting the wide-scale adoption of electric vehicles by normal everyday drivers. The cost and complexity of getting Level 2 2,20V - 24V power for fast home charging for new, longer-range EVs was tremendous.
How did the idea come about?
Situation - Dan Liddle, founder and CEO, came from decades of tech startups in Silicon Valley where he solved complex problems in a unique way in fast paced environments. While driving to work everyday, he was allowed to use the HOV lane to help the environment and save time and money on the commute. As a result, Dan made the transition to an EV after driving plug in hybrids for years.
Problem - Level 1 charging is too slow. It doesn’t work for 300 mile ranges for today's fully electric vehicles. The cost, time, complexity, and inconvenience of installing a Level 2 circuit is prohibited for most people and deters adoption of EVs. For a simple installation of a Level 2 circuit, Dan was quoted over $800 and many weeks of online surveys, permitting, and power company load testing to have the job completed.
Realization - While looking at the high quote for a new circuit to be added, Dan realized that he already had a barely used Level 2 circuit in the garage, where his dryer was plugged in. If only there was a way to share this circuit safely and automatically with the dryer and EV, it would save tremendous money and time.
Solution - Thus, the Splitvolt Splitter Switch and L2 power switching concept was born. It allows you to safely and automatically share your existing dryer circuit with your L2 charger without having to install a dedicated charging circuit. This saves weeks of time, complexity, and potentially thousands of dollars. It’s plug and play, so anyone can do it. Just plug it in and you immediately have L2 fast home charging, without requiring any installation.
