Standout: 48A with a native NACS plug for under $480
Watch out: Hardwired only and no app
Not for: Owners of J1772-port EVs
The Lectron NEXUS is a 48A hardwired Level 2 charger with a native NACS (Tesla-style) connector and a 23 ft cable. It skips the app to keep the price down, at about $420 to $480.
What you need before you buy
A 60A, 240V circuit hardwired by an electrician.
A NACS-port EV, or an adapter for J1772 cars.
Your car’s app if you want to schedule off-peak charging.
How fast it charges
At 48A it adds up to about 46 miles of range per hour, refilling most daily driving in an hour or two.
How I researched this: Lectron’s NEXUS product listing and specs, the Amazon listing, and a video review from TechPick. Prices checked October 30, 2026.
