Lectron Level 2 EV Charger 240V 40A NEMA 14-50 Plug, 16 ft J1772 Cable — Portable, ETL & IP65 Water-Resistant

The Lectron Level 2 EV Charger is a portable, ETL- and Energy Star–certified 240V/40A J1772 charger with a NEMA 14-50 plug and a 16-foot cable for faster home or on-the-go charging.

Designed for drivers who want quicker charging than a standard Level 1 cord can provide, the Lectron Level 2 EV Charger delivers up to 9.6 kW of charging power using a NEMA 14-50 outlet. It is compatible with J1772-equipped electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids, offers built-in safety protections, and is rated IP65 for basic dust and water resistance, making it suitable for garage and outdoor use. The unit’s portability and plug-in design remove the need for permanent hardwiring, so you can take Level 2 charging with you when traveling or use it where a 240V outlet is available.

How fast will this charger power my EV?

The Lectron Level 2 charger provides up to 40 amps at 240 volts, which equates to a maximum of 9.6 kW charging. Actual charge speed depends on your vehicle’s onboard charger and battery acceptance rate.

• Maximum input: 240V, 40A (9.6 kW)
• Typical charge time reduction versus Level 1: several hours depending on vehicle
• Works with J1772-standard EVs and PHEVs

Is it safe to use at home and outside?

Yes—the charger includes FCC and ETL certification (UL2594 standard), energy-efficient design, and protection features to reduce electrical risks. Its IP65 rating gives basic protection against dust and water spray, suitable for covered outdoor and garage environments.

• Certifications: ETL (UL2594) and FCC; Energy Star rated
• Built-in protections: overvoltage, overcurrent, short-circuit safeguards
• Environmental rating: IP65 dust and water-resistant enclosure

Do I need professional installation or special wiring?

No permanent hardwiring is required if you have a matching 240V NEMA 14-50 outlet. The charger plugs directly into a standard NEMA 14-50 receptacle, letting you avoid electrician-only installation in many cases—though an electrician is recommended if you need a new 14-50 outlet installed.

• Connects to standard NEMA 14-50 240V outlets
• Portable plug-in design—no fixed hardwiring necessary
• Hire a qualified electrician only if you need a new 14-50 circuit added

Which vehicles will this charger work with and what about Teslas?

The Lectron Level 2 uses the J1772 connector, so it works with most non-Tesla electric cars and plug-in hybrids from major manufacturers. Tesla drivers can use this charger with a commercially available Tesla-to-J1772 adapter (adapter sold separately).

• Compatible brands: BMW, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Chevy, Porsche, Mercedes, and more
• Tesla compatibility: requires a J1772-to-Tesla adapter
• Cable length: 16-foot cord gives flexibility in typical driveways and garages

Who is this for? The Lectron Level 2 EV Charger is aimed at EV owners who want faster, reliable charging at home or while traveling without committing to a hardwired wall charger. It suits drivers with access to a NEMA 14-50 outlet, owners of J1772-equipped vehicles, renters who need a portable solution, and anyone who values certified safety features and weather resistance for garage or covered outdoor use. If you need longer cable length or a hardwired installation, consider other models or professional wiring options.
