FoMoCo LJ98-10C823-A followed by one character

FoMoCo LJ98-10C823-A followed by one character is a Level 2 home EV charger from FoMoCo with up to 48 A (11.52 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 20 ft cable, networked smart charging.

Our take

An automaker parts-channel entry, certified under the FoMoCo label as model LJ98-10C823-A. The specs read close to the middle of the 91-model 48 A class: 11.5 kW on a 60 A circuit for roughly 41 miles of range per hour, networking like 88 percent of peers, and 3.2 W of idle draw just under the 3.34 W median. The 20 ft cable is the shortfall — bottom quarter of the class, 5 ft under typical — so check the geometry of your parking spot before choosing it over an aftermarket unit with more reach.
