Blink MQ200
Blink MQ200 is a Level 2 home EV charger from Blink with up to 50 A (12 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 23 ft cable, networked smart charging.
Our take
The networked counterpart to Blink’s stripped-down 50 A unit, and connectivity costs it: 3.07 W at idle versus 0.96 W for the non-networked sibling, though that still lands below the 3.47 W class median. Output is the full 12 kW on a 65 A circuit, about 42 miles of range per charging hour, with a 23-foot cable two feet under the class norm. Worth comparing directly against the cheaper non-networked version — the hardware differs mainly in the radio.
- Best for: Off-peak scheduling and usage tracking without a standby-power penalty.
- Trade-off: The 23-foot cable is slightly short of the 25-foot class standard.

EV compatibility
The Blink MQ200's J1772 connector plugs directly into 23 of the 29 EVs tracked in this database. The other 6 (Hyundai Ioniq 5, Tesla Cybertruck, Tesla Model 3, Tesla Model S, Tesla Model X, Tesla Model Y) work with it too — requires a J1772-to-NACS adapter (Tesla includes one with its vehicles).
