New in Box Enphase 50 Amp - HCS-50 Level 2 EV Charger

The Enphase HCS-50 is a reliable, rugged Level 2 EV charger (EVSE) designed for residential and light commercial use. It requires a dedicated 50 Amp circuit breaker and delivers up to 40 A continuous output (9.6 kW maximum power) at 208/240 VAC single-phase.

This provides fast charging—up to about 7 times faster than a standard Level 1 cord set—adding up to approximately 38 miles of range per hour, depending on the vehicle's efficiency and onboard charger capabilities.
