LITE-ON Technology Corporation W1-UC168-0ML1EP
LITE-ON Technology Corporation W1-UC168-0ML1EP is a Level 2 home EV charger from LITE-ON Technology Corporation with up to 48 A (11.52 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 25 ft cable, networked smart charging.
Our take
The only one of Lite-On’s five W1-UC168 variants to carry the full 25-foot class-median cable — the rest stop at 24 feet — which makes it the family pick for a wide garage. Standby draw of 3.92 W sits at the 63rd percentile of the 91 certified 48 A models, modestly above the median but under three of its networked siblings. Like 88% of the class it is connected, and the 60 A circuit delivers 11.5 kW: about 41 miles of range per hour, a rate only 3 of the 29 EVs we track can fully use.
- Best for: The longest cable in the W1-UC168 family, at 25 feet.
- Trade-off: Idle draw still runs above the class median.
