AA EVC48A-LV2
AA EVC48A-LV2 is a Level 2 home EV charger from AA with up to 48 A (11.52 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 18 ft cable, networked smart charging.
Our take
Before paying for 48 A, check your car’s onboard charger: only 3 of the 29 EVs we track can accept this unit’s full 11.5 kW, so for most vehicles it charges no faster than a 40 A model while requiring a heavier 60 A circuit. Within the 91 certified 48 A chargers in this database, this one reads mid-pack or below: an 18 ft cable against a 25 ft median, and a 5.15 W idle draw in the top sixth of the class — about 45 kWh a year. Networking is included, as on 88 percent of the cohort.
- Best for: Households whose next EV may accept more than 40 A onboard.
- Trade-off: High idle draw and a short cable for the class.
