ChargePoint CPH50
ChargePoint CPH50 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.
Our take
The indoor-oriented sibling to ChargePoint’s outdoor 50 A model, and the better of the pair on the numbers: 2.93 W at idle against a 3.47 W class median, roughly 26 kWh a year, where the outdoor version draws 4.6 W. Both share the same 18-foot cable, which is the shortest reach in the 20-model 50 A cohort and the spec most likely to cause regret — measure from the intended mounting point to the car’s port before committing. Output is 12 kW on a 65 A circuit.
- Best for: Garage installs where the panel sits close to the parking spot.
- Trade-off: Shortest cable in its class at 18 feet — measure carefully first.
