PointGuard PG EVAC 11.5 WI TS WH

PointGuard PG EVAC 11.5 WI TS WH is a Level 2 home EV charger from PointGuard with up to 48 A (11.52 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 25 ft cable, networked smart charging.

Our take

The certified numbers here are strong in the quiet categories: 2.15 W of standby draw ranks in the lowest 23% of the 91 certified 48 A models — about 19 kWh a year, two-thirds of the median unit’s idle cost — paired with the full 25-foot class-median cable and Wi-Fi connectivity like 88% of the class. Output is the standard 48 A on a 60 A circuit, about 41 miles of range per hour. PointGuard’s T1 sibling is all but identical at 2.2 W, so the sensible tiebreaker between them is price.
