"Installing" a charger is just plugging it into the standard 240V outlet, maybe with a screw in the wall to hold it up. The cost is getting the outlet wired, with a possible upgrade to the panel. Some dishonest electricians have "charger installation" as a much higher price. I went with a fancy Wallbox charger at first, which promptly burnt out and was a general connection disaster, replacing it with a more consistent $60 Amazon charger. They're glorified relays, with a pulse train (no computer required) that is used to set/modulate car side power draw [1].
