Lectron LECHG14-50-40ABLKUS-APP
Lectron LECHG14-50-40ABLKUS-APP is a Level 2 home EV charger from Lectron with up to 40 A (9.6 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 16 ft cable, networked smart charging.
Our take
The connected version of Lectron’s budget 40 A charger, and the added radio stays cheap to run: 1.7 W of standby remains in the lowest quarter of the 56 certified 40 A models here, well under the 2.38 W median, versus 0.83 W for the offline sibling. Everything else tracks the family: 9.6 kW on a 50 A circuit for about 34 miles of range per hour, full rate accepted by 25 of our 29 tracked EVs, and the same 16 ft cable — shorter than roughly 80% of the class and best suited to a mount near the charge port.
- Best for: Adding Wi-Fi scheduling to the Lectron platform with minimal idle penalty.
- Trade-off: The short 16 ft cable carries over from the offline version.
