ChargePoint CPF50
ChargePoint CPF50 is a Level 2 home EV charger from ChargePoint with up to 50 A (12 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 18 ft cable, networked smart charging.
MSRP: $899
Our take
ChargePoint’s outdoor-rated 50 A unit carries a $899 MSRP, the highest priced entry in its class here, and the spec sheet does not obviously justify the premium: 4.6 W at idle sits in the top fifth of the 20-model cohort, and the 18-foot cable is seven feet under the class median — a real constraint if the car parks nose-out or the panel is on the far wall. What the price buys is the ChargePoint network and app, which is a genuine differentiator for scheduling rather than a spec-sheet number.
- Best for: Buyers who specifically want the ChargePoint app and network integration.
- Trade-off: The 18-foot cable is well short of the 25-foot class norm.
