ChargePoint Home Flex NEMA 14-50 Plug-In Level 2 EV Charger, J1772 (CPH50-NEMA14-50-L23) vs EVIQO EVIPOWER NACS 48A Hardwired Level 2 EV Charger
These are side-by-side facts taken from each product guide: published specifications, strengths and caveats as their sources state them. This page is not a test, a ranking or a verdict about which model is better.
ChargePoint Home Flex NEMA 14-50 Plug-In Level 2 EV Charger, J1772 (CPH50-NEMA14-50-L23)
An existing 50-amp 14-50 outlet within about 20 inches of the mounting stud
This is the plug-in Home Flex: a J1772 charger on a NEMA 14-50 plug that ChargePoint's own table caps at a 40-amp load and about 30 miles of range per hour. It keeps the app, the wide temperature range and the three-year warranty, and it can move with you to another 14-50 outlet.
Published specifications
- Guide: plug-in maximum 40A on a 50A circuit, 32A on a 40A circuit
- Guide: continuous load device, circuit rated for 125% of maximum load
- Guide: dedicated 240V two-pole non-GFCI breaker; 90°C copper, max 6 AWG
- Guide: input power cable 18 in, outlet 20-26 in above the floor beside the stud
- Guide: operating range -40°F to 122°F at 16-48A settings
- Guide: 3-year parts exchange warranty, original purchaser, single-family residence
Strengths
- Plugs into an existing 14-50 outlet and can be moved to another one later
- Maker publishes the plug-in versus hardwired limits in one table
- Wide stated operating range, down to -40°F, with a cold-resistant cable
Caveats
- Plugged in it is a 40-amp charger; the 50-amp figure belongs to the hardwired version
- The 18-inch input cable means the outlet must be right next to the mounting stud
- Outdoor use needs an outdoor-rated weather-resistant outlet, or hardwiring instead
