Specifications

Charging
Output power
what this meansThe maximum power the charger delivers. Higher power means a faster charge. This figure is the unit's own amperage times its supply voltage, which is what power means on a single phase AC circuit, so it can read slightly below a maker's marketing figure: a 40 amp charger on 240 volts is 9.6 kW even where the box says 10.
1.92 kW
Max output current
what this meansThe maximum current the unit draws. It sets the circuit breaker and wire size the install needs.
16 A
Charger level
what this meansThe EVSE class. Level 2 runs on a 240 volt circuit; Level 1 uses a standard 120 volt outlet.
Level 1
Charging outputs
what this meansHow many vehicles the unit can connect to at once. Most home units have one.
1
Connectivity
what this meansHow the charger connects for app control, scheduling, and firmware updates, or whether it runs offline only.
Not networked
Idle power draw
what this meansPower the unit draws while plugged in but not charging. Lower means less standby waste.
2.8 W
Installation
Form factor
what this meansPortable units are cord sets that plug into an outlet and can travel in the car. Wall-mounted units install in one place, hardwired or on a dedicated outlet.
Portable
Power connection
what this meansHow the unit connects to supply power: a NEMA plug that fits a matching 240 volt outlet, or hardwired into the circuit by an electrician. Verified from manufacturer documentation, and left blank where it is not yet confirmed.
NEMA 5-15P plug
Input voltage
what this meansThe supply voltage the unit runs on. Level 2 home chargers use 240 volts.
120 V
Cable and connector
Cable length
what this meansLength of the attached charging cable. A longer cable reaches across a driveway or to a second parking spot.
20 ft
Connector
what this meansThe plug that connects to the vehicle. J1772 (also called Type 1) fits most non-Tesla EVs; NACS (the Tesla style plug, SAE J3400) is the emerging North American standard. Some models are sold in both, so you pick the version when you order. Verified from manufacturer specifications, and left blank where it is not yet confirmed.
J1772
Cable gauge
what this meansAmerican Wire Gauge of the charging cable. A lower number is a thicker conductor.
14 AWG
Identity and provenance
Model number
what this meansThe manufacturer model number, useful for cross checking listings and permits. In some model numbers, x and # stand for variant positions such as color or cable length options.
SEV1670
Manufacturer
what this meansThe ENERGY STAR partner that makes or private labels this model, which can differ from the brand name.
