The car comes with a 110V charger adapter. This is taking me too long to recharge. We are about to hire an electrician to fix a "multitude of woes" and in the process install a new 220V power outlet at the front of the garage to charge the car quickly.

What are the most popular/best chargers, and what kind of electrical socket is required?

If this is in a FAQ, pardon my ignorance. Thanks very much.
 
NEMA 14-50 outlet is a common choice.

I was looking at a Lefanev cable. Options are almost limitless, as are opinions.

I’m about to do the wiring myself, as finding an electrician is virtually impossible.
 
FWIW from a pedant... please don't call it 110V. Household circuits in the U.S. are nominally 120V, and are allowed to droop to 114V. 110V is out of spec.
 
As stated there are a lot of Chargers available. I liked the Grizzl-E because it comes with adjustable output depending on the breaker it is connected to. This was important because I was limited to the supply breaker size. Charger is very well built and comes with a 3 or 5 year replacement warranty and its made in Canada.
 
I have a Juicebox 40 that is WiFi equipped. Works well. Charges car in just over 2 hours from 0% to 100%. I have it set to start charging at 3 AM using TOU.
