AUTEL MaxiChager Single Charger

AUTEL MaxiChager Single Charger is a Level 2 home EV charger from AUTEL with up to 50 A (12 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 25 ft cable, networked smart charging.

Our take

A generically named entry in AUTEL’s 50 A family, certified at 3.49 W standby — the class median is 3.47 W, so this is the definition of average. Specs otherwise track the family: 12 kW, roughly 42 miles of range per charging hour, a 65 A minimum circuit, 25 feet of cable, and Wi-Fi. The vague model name is the real hazard here; confirm the exact SKU against the certification record before ordering, because several AUTEL variants share nearly identical sheets.
