Excellent integration with your Enphase solar system.

5 out of 5 stars

Excellent integration with your Enphase solar system.
The charger works great. The Enphase app allows you to charge only when producing excess solar if desired which maximizes solar usage. I installed a 50 amp breaker in my box and ran 6/3 gauge from my panel to where I installed the receptacle. The charger was easy to hang and the QR code synced right to my Enphase app with no trouble. This is a must have if you have Enphase inverters and solar with an electric car.

    Solid product, good app but not cheap

    Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2024

    Style: Hardwired w/ J1772 connectorSize: 32 AmpVerified Purchase

    Opted for 32 amp model to take advantage of rebate from our local utility and it charges many times faster than level 1 and works fine as an overnight charger for single car. For our car we get about 10% per hour so needs all night for full charge but 5-6 hrs covers our typical daily needs. It would probably be inconvenient if we had 2 cars but fortunately for us we only have 1 EV (our other cars are hybrid and ice).

    The connector is beefy and looks like it will hold up. I like how you can wrap the cable around the charger itself and we don’t even use the holster.

    The app is straightforward though it only allows you scheduling and override. Our cars app does too but the Enphase app works better.

    It charges as expected. Easy to install. The app does not work as well as I hoped it would. Not worth extra money for the app if that is a purchase decision.

    Beware of Service Whip

    Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2025

    Style: Hardwired w/ J1772 connectorSize: 64 AmpVerified Purchase

    Charger itself is great, but the service whip wires are undersized–this creates a resistive heat problem and will trip your breakers. They solve this problem by insisting that the install should junction with properly sized conductor wires, which increases the installation cost. If you want to replace their undersized, poor quality service whip wiring with a more robust conductor, it will void the bloody warranty and UL Listing. This is a design modification they could easily make, but apparently they choose not to.

    Solid EVSE but features are unreliable

    Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2024

    Style: Hardwired w/ J1772 connectorSize: 40 AmpVerified Purchase

    I purchased this EVSE because I already have Enphase microinverters on solar panels on my home and an Enphase IQ gateway controlling them all. Despite this EVSE being a bit overpriced as compared to their competition, I decided the features to integrate with the rest of my system were worth the additional cost.

    Unfortunately, a few months after I purchased it, Enphase began experiencing endemic problems with their cloud services, which this EVSE relies on for all but basic charging functions. This means the charger is extremely unreliable at only charging the car from excess solar production (the primary reason I purchased it). I have had multiple interactions with Enphase support and they have continually promised that fixes are in the works to address this issue, but so far none of their fixes have made any difference. They supposedly recently updated the firmware in both the EVSE and system controller to allow them to communicate without needing their unreliable cloud service and I have implemented all of this to no avail. Charging from surplus production is still "hit or miss" and works fine for a few days, then fails miserably for a day or two and the cycle repeats. This has been going on for multiple MONTHS with no end in sight. This would be a 5-star product if they could make their features work reliably.

    Good charger, I did upsize wire in whip

    Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2023

    Style: Hardwired w/ J1772 connectorSize: 64 AmpVerified Purchase

    Looks to be a well made charger, I got the 64 amp version (80a breaker) and was a bit disappointed/worried because the supplied pre-installed whip was only 8awg wire. Code will show for 64 amps 8awg is not sufficient, however I know they get around this because it’s an “appliance” and it’s a short run, but still, it did not sit well with me running a constant 64a through that 8 gauge wire. I ended up tearing their whip out and replacing it with 4awg wire, the biggest the connectors in the unit would accept. I ran 2-2-4 from the panel to the junction box to connect the whip.
    Was a very short install outside of the changing the whip, and once connected it worked perfectly. Setting up was a breeze, connecting to WiFi was a breeze. The app is pretty slick, and nice to be able to put your electricity rates in to see what each session is costing you.
