|---|---|---|---|
| Official maximum output powerThe official maximum output power published on the ENERGY STAR certified AC-output EVSE record, in kilowatts. It is the certified nameplate figure, not a charging speed we measured at a vehicle. In this category the reference range is 1.44 kW to 11.52 kW, which covers official Level 1 figures and official dual-input or portable Level 2 figures up to 48 A at 240 V. | 1.92 kW | 1.44 kW | 30% |
| Official maximum output cord lengthThe official maximum output cord length published on the ENERGY STAR record, in feet. A record of 0 ft is shown as 0 ft and usually means the certified unit is an inlet or socket without a factory cable. We do not guess a cable length from retailer listings. Official lengths above 30 ft are clamped at the 30 ft reference best. | 16 ft | 25 ft | 25% |
| Official no-vehicle-mode input powerThe official no-vehicle-mode input power published on the ENERGY STAR record, in watts. Lower official standby power is better. This is a certified laboratory figure for the charger when no vehicle is connected, not a bill we measured at a house panel. | 2.75 W | 1.88 W | 25% |
