Read the reviews on the GRIZZL-E EV charger and watched a few videos. Easy to use, easy to install, rain weather protected, works in the cold. All these are very true. We're able to get the recommended 80% charge in about 4 hours here in the PNW. Would definitely recommend.

We wanted a charger that could put up with our notoriously wet, cold, and blustery weather conditions; give us security to lock down the unit when we weren't using it; and set it to run only during our utility's off-peak hours.Our electrician recommended Grizzl-E for our climate. When I saw the State of Charge review where a Grizzl-E charger was sprayed with a water hose, dropped in a bucket of water, and still worked flawlessly, I figured we were choosing the right brand.While some have criticized the app for being too basic, it allows us to turn the unit on and off or to set it to a timer with a simple press of a button. It also allows us to see what each charging session has cost us and to assign the charge to a specific user. It also shows basic information regarding amperage, voltage, kilowatt hours, and length of session.The charger is rated at 48 amps and its average amperage when charging our 2024 Prologue is around 47.7 amps. We gained 150 miles of range in just over four hours - ideal for overnight charging at home.While you might get away with a cheaper charger in warmer climates or a garage install, the Grizzl-E is the best value for an outdoor installation in the northern United States.

Nice charger, works well with our lyriq and charges pretty fast, setup only took a few hours and and the app is good too. We had a little bit of trouble connecting the charger to wifi but if you use the circuit breaker to cut the power for a couple of minutes you can reset the wifi connection

Very heavy duty construction, but doesn't like talking to our BMW X5e when charging is finished and it generates and error message and annoying beep. Unplug the car and within a minute it will reset to normal; the car is charged and the charger is fine, but you can't leave the car plugged in overnight otherwise it will charge and then emit an error beeping all night long. The charger works fine on our BMW i3. Also, the internal relays are noisy and emit a heavy "clunk" when working, like they're going to eventually bust themselves.

Installed very easily. Solid unit. Everything looks robust and heavy duty. Long cable and main charge plug seems well built. Watched many reviews and this charger rates very high. Mounted inside but is weatherproof for outdoor install. Made in Canada. Haven't used it yet....Just did the install. We will see very soon how it charges..... will update soon. Cheers.****Update.... charged for the first time last night. Received 47.9a and charged up our new EV as expected quick..... Therefore I highly recommend this and keep the business in Canada. Thanks for making a great no nonsense charger! The app is intuitive and works as it should. Simple robust design that just works. Track your charging with cost. Set schedules and charge limits. and notifies you when it's done. What more could there be? It does everything a charger is supposed to do.To the reviewer below who says it doesn't have a nema plug..... it is not supposed to because nema plugs only handle up to 50amp breaker (40 amp max charge rate) For that you will need the lower amperage charger which can be pluged in to a nema plug. This unit is to be hardwired as it handles 48amp 240v. Just saying.

I bought two of the hardwired Ultimate models for our EV's. App is good, has all the needed features. The units have an external WiFi antenna and stay connected with no issue. They haven't dropped once. Very easy to configure. The app starts and functions every single time, and is also easy to set up. These units also have a web interface where settings and configs can be made via a web browser, and stats can be viewed. When setting price per KWH, remember that the format is in dollars. So for example, 9.5c/kwh would be configured a 0.095 in the app, NOT 9.5. Solid well made units. Connectors are great and fit the EV's with no issue. The Ultimate comes with the heavy duty holster that goes on the wall where the J1772 connector will click into when not in use. The brackets to install on the wall are great and easy to mount. If installing outside, buy the Grizzl-E lockset to lock them up so thieves can't steal them.

Excelente equipo de carga para auto eléctrico. Lo uso con mi volvo y tesla. Tiene app y esta hecho de metal lo que lo hace muy duradero si lo dejas al exterior como yo. La app de permite establecer horarios de carga y limitar acceso a 3ceros que no quieres que carguen. En general un excelente cargador por el precio. Mucho mejor que los chinos de marca desconocidos en rondan en amazon.

Straightforward, high powered home charger. At the time of writing this is a relatively new unit, but it works well consistently.

I have an EV, not a plug-in hybrid. It came with a charging cable. I was thinking about just having a dedicated 240-volt outlet installed until I found out that I could only charge at a maximum of 40 amps (80% of a 50-amp circuit breaker max for an outlet) rather than my car’s maximum and fastest 48 amps. Plus, the electrician informed me about some outlet code requirements for GFCI, etc., so I decided on a charging station. I bought the Grizzl-E 48A Ultimate Level 2 EV Charger with J1772 connector for several reasons: 1) It charged the quickest at the maximum of 48 amps; 2) it’s made in Canada, not China; 3) it’s UL Certified; 4) it came with a heavy-duty 25 ft charging cable—long enough for my needs inside the garage; and 5) I liked the simple, but heavy-duty metal case—no bells and whistles. My car displays all the charging info I need and includes settable max charging limits and a scheduler/timer. The Grizzl-E does have a supporting phone app that I have installed. While it duplicates most of the things my car can do, it does allow me to enter the kwh cost of my electricity so I can track charging costs. A licensed electrician installed a 60-amp 240-volt breaker (80% of 60 amps equals 48 amps max) in my panel and hard-wired the charging station (cost around $500). WiFi setup of the charging station and connection to the app worked the first time and has been stable ever since installing two months ago. The charger works great, and it’s nice to fast charge my car to 90% in just a few hours. The only thing I don’t like is the included holder for the cable and J1772 charging handle. I think it’s sourced from a third party. Its plastic feels cheap and hinky compared to the charging station’s metal. Because of the angle at which it mounts to the wall, it’s hard to loop the cable around and insert the charging handle in the enclosure; plus, the charging handle doesn’t seem securely latched in place. Grizzl-E could do better with this.

When I started shopping for charger, it was Very important to me that they are UL certified (or equivalent). I was pleasantly surprised to discover this one from Canada. You don’t want to spend $80k + on an EV and then buy a cheap-o charger only for it to melt or burn your house down. Grizzl.e is UL and w/ heavy-duty appearing cables. The model I got supports WiFi and has a nice simple app that I can schedule/turn off charging, as well as track the charging data (if you want). Pro tip- I connected using the web, and was then able to use the app (they’ll send you an easy how-to sheet, no worries).Overall it’s been rock solid. My electrician that installed it could not beat this price (his cheapest he carried was $300-$400 more) and he said it looks like “a beast” lol and should last a very long time. I’ve had no issues and would wholeheartedly recommend.
