Our verdict

EVSE - Enphase suits households with a solar array and a phone-first setup, pairing 11.5 kW of charging power with solar divert, OCPP and a mobile app. Installation is not included and carries $1,000, which ranks 2 of 6 on that measure, while support runs on phone only.

Visit

Who it suits

  • Households with solar generation that want charging to follow the array rather than the grid.
  • Drivers who want sessions and settings handled from a phone, with OCPP for outside control software.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Endesa buyers who want installation folded into the price of the unit.
  • Autel Energy buyers who want more charging power than 11.5 kW.
  • DRBO Greenenergy buyers who prefer a lower power rating at 11 kW.

Core features

EVSE - Enphase charges at 11.5 kW and ships with a tethered cable, so the connector stays attached to the housing rather than being bought as a separate item. Solar divert is supported, which lets charging follow power the home generates rather than only drawing from the grid, and that is the clearest reason to pick this unit. OCPP is supported as well, so the charger can be brought into open control software for scheduling and load management alongside other devices. A mobile app is included for sessions, status and settings, which is useful for checking output while a car is plugged in. Warranty runs 5 years on the unit. Installation is not included, so the hardware and the fitting are two separate commitments at the property.

How it compares on our data

On installation price, this brand ranks 2 of 6 brands in our data, which is the stronger of the two measures here. That pattern fits a charger chosen for use alongside house solar and app control rather than for headline output, and it is the trade-off to weigh against the installation charge.

How EVSE - Enphase compares

Frequently asked questions

How much does installation cost with this charger?+

Installation is not included with the Enphase charger, and the listed charge for fitting is $1,000. That sits on top of the hardware rather than being folded into the price of the unit, so budget for the box and the work as two separate commitments. Endesa, by contrast, includes installation with the charger it sells.

How powerful is the charger?+

Output is 11.5 kW, which places the unit in the middle of this group: DRBO Greenenergy offers 11 kW and Autel Energy offers 12 kW on the power rating. On our data this charger sits at 9 of 18 brands on that measure, so it is a solid home rating rather than a high-output one.

Can it charge from my own solar?+

Solar divert is supported, so charging can follow power generated on site rather than only drawing from the grid. Paired with output of 11.5 kW, that suits households already running solar and wanting most of their charging done in daylight. The tethered cable keeps everyday plug-in charging simple without a separate lead to buy.

Is there an app and does it work with other software?+

A mobile app is included, so sessions, status and settings can be handled from a phone. OCPP is also supported, which means the charger can join open control software for scheduling rather than depending on the app alone. Support questions run on phone only, which is worth checking before ordering if you prefer written help.

How long is the warranty?+

Warranty runs 5 years on the unit, and that cover sits with the hardware rather than with the fitting. Installation is not included here, so the work at the property is arranged and paid for separately at $1,000. Buyers who want the installation covered by the seller may prefer a brand that includes it.

How do I get help if something goes wrong?+

Support runs on phone only, so a phone call is the single route for questions about the unit or a charging session. That suits buyers who prefer to talk the problem through, and less so anyone who expects a written answer or live chat. Routes differ between brands, so check before ordering if that matters.

Does the charging cable come attached?+

A tethered cable is included, so the connector stays fixed to the unit and the lead is always to hand. Output of 11.5 kW covers typical home charging, and OCPP support lets the charger be scheduled alongside other home devices. It is the tidier option for a driveway or garage with limited wall space.

Who should pick a different charger instead?+

Endesa includes installation with the unit, which suits buyers who would rather not arrange fitting themselves. Drivers wanting more output can weigh Autel Energy at 12 kW, while DRBO Greenenergy at 11 kW sits lower on power. Each carries a different balance of outlay, power and what the seller includes.
