Autel AC Lite 40A 9.6kW Level 2 EV Charger
β‘ Before You Buy
This is a plug-in charger requiring a NEMA 14-50 outlet. If you don't have one, an electrician needs to install a dedicated 50-amp circuit first. The 40A model draws 40A continuously β if your panel is 100 amps or smaller, confirm available capacity before scheduling any electrical work. Check the panel capacity guide β
Autel's AC Lite Home 40A brings genuine smart-home integration to residential EV charging. At 9.6kW it adds up to 32 miles per hour, and the connectivity options β Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, CAN, RS485 β make it one of the most integration-ready chargers at this price point. Available in Dark Gray and White. The AI-driven load management prevents nuisance tripping by monitoring available panel capacity in real time β a genuine differentiator for homes with solar or tight panel headroom.
