These are our choices for the Best NEMA 6-50 EV Chargers of 2022.

Let’s have a look at each product in particular.

ChargePoint Home Flex – Level 2 EV Charging Station (16-50 Amp)

The first NEMA 5-15 EV Charger is the Chargepoint home flex electric vehicle charger. It can plug into either a NEMA 14-50 or a NEMA 6-50 wall outlet however it can also be hardwired, you can hire a licensed electrician to install it or do it yourself if you’re familiar with the process.

Because it is a 50 AMP 240V Level 2 charger, its charging power is rated at 12 kW which means it will obliterate the other chargers listed here in terms of sheer power, but what kind of charging times can you expect from it?

If 50 Amp charging is available, a Tesla Model Y will charge in about 7 hours, a Mustang Mach E will take just about 6-7 hours to charge and a Long Range Tesla Model 3 takes about 6. These fast charging speeds are estimations for fully charging the cars based on calculations, so you need to take these as approximations NOT as official data.

It comes with a 23ft cable (7 meters) which is easy to holster even in the dark because the charger is fitted with a smart backlight. Because it doesn’t have an LCD display mounted on the charger, it uses the backlight to communicate information to you by flashing it in different colors. It is a J1772 cable so given that this plug type is very common, it charges any EV in North America, even Tesla models which come with an adapter.

This device is a wifi enabled electric vehicle charger, which means you’ll be able to remotely control it using your smartphone. In this case, you’ll be using the chargepoint app which is the same one that you use to find public chargers. One of the main features is the ability to schedule charging in order to use as much off-peak electricity as possible and reduce your energy bill. Apart from that, it can automatically remind you to plug in your car in case you haven’t done so.

The ChargePoint Home Flex is NEMA 3R rated, so it is recommended that you install it indoor, it is Energy Star certified and it comes with a 3-Year warranty and 24/7 Customer support.

EVoCharge EVSE & iEVSE – Level 2 EV Charging Station (32 Amp)

Then there is our second NEMA 6-50 EV Charger, the EVoCharge EVSE & iEVSE. These are two separate units but they differ in one key aspect, the iEVSE comes with WiFi and the smartphone app. EVoCharger lets you choose whether you want to pay extra for that.

You get a selection of two charging cables: 18 feet or 25 feet, both have a J1772 connector that plugs into the electric car and at the other end, the unit will plug into a NEMA 6-50 outlet or can be simply hardwired. This is a 32 Amp Level 2 charger, so it is not as powerful as the ChargePoint as it delivers 7.68 kW of power. Let’s see how that influences the charge speed: For comparison sake, the Model Y will charge in about 10 hours, the Long Range Model 3 in about 9 hours, while other cars such as the Kia Niro or Hyundai Kona should take 9 hours or so. A Nissan Leaf with the 40 kWh battery pack will take approximately 6 hours.

If you go for the WiFi enabled version, you’ll get the EVoCharge mobile app which lets you set charging schedules, manage multiple stations from one device and it also comes with a clever reporting feature showing you how much power you’ve used for each charging session.

It is NEMA 4 rated and this is about the equivalent of IP66, so you won’t have any problems if it is placed outdoors and it comes with a 3-Year warranty.

Mustart – Level 2 Portable EV Charger (40 Amp)

And now we get to the 40 Amp Mustart which is our third NEMA 6-50 EV Charger. What makes the Mustart different is that it is a portable EV electrical vehicle charger so you don’t need to mount it on the wall, you can just carry it around in your car.

It will plug into either a NEMA 14-50 or a NEMA 6-50 outlet running at 240V and it will deliver 9.6 kW of power which is quite impressive for a portable charger. This puts it somewhere between the ChargePoint and the EVoCharge.

Here are some estimates: The Tesla Model Y with the 75 kWh battery pack would take about 9 hours, while with the for a Chevy Bolt EV with a 60 kWh battery pack it should take about 8-9 hours, for a BMW i3 with the 32 kWh battery it would take 4-5 hours.

It’s not a smart charger, so don’t expect any fancy features but you do get an LCD display that shows you things like the charging status, amperage, voltage, temperature of the unit and a timer for the current session. The charger itself is IP65 rated so it has no problems staying outdoors in the rain and it will come with a 2-Year No-Hassle warranty from Mustart.

Morec – Level 2 Portable EV Charger (32 Amp)

Now we get to our last NEMA 6-50 EV Charger which is the Morec Level 2 Portable EV Charger. Like the Mustart, this one can be carried around and uses the same plugs for connecting to the grid: Either a NEMA 14-50 plug or a NEMA 6-50. In terms of charging power you can expect the same speed and charging time as with the EVoCharge because they both output 7.68 kW of power.

No smart features, just like with the Mustart but an LCD display is also present here to provide you with that geek-level info that you need.

The device is IP66 rated so you can keep the control box out in the open, it is waterproof and dustproof and the Morec comes with a 1-Year warranty which just doesn’t match what you get with the others (2 & 3 years), but it is cheaper. Although given a choice between this and the Mustart, I would go for the Mustart since there is only a 30$ premium and you get more charging power.
