That article is a product of writing an article based on Google searches, getting paid by the word and not knowing anything about what you are talking about.
The person writing the article knows nothing about electric vehicles or pricing an electrical job. The difference between installing the wiring and plug for a level 2 vs level 1 charger is negligible. Old work electrical installs are mostly labor.
And news flash: not everyone needs a $1,000+ 6.6kw outdoor charging station. A simple 3.6kwh portable charger is plenty for most people.
I do almost all my charging with a 2.4kw charger.
