{"product_id":"echarge-48-amp-level-2-ev-charger","title":"eCharge 48 Amp Level 2 EV Charger","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe fastest charger in the Battery Tender® eCharge lineup. The eCharge 48 Amp Level 2 delivers approximately 11.5 kW at 240V — adding roughly 30–36 miles of driving range per hour and fully charging most long-range EV batteries in 6–8 hours. For drivers of high-capacity EVs, households with multiple EVs sharing a single charger, or commercial and fleet charging applications where throughput matters, 48 Amps is the maximum output available in the eCharge line. Energy Star certified for maximum efficiency at full output.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy 48 Amps\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVehicle onboard charger capacity varies significantly by make, model, and trim level. For vehicles that can accept high charge rates — many current long-range EVs accept 9.6 kW, 11 kW, or higher — 48 Amp Level 2 charging maximizes speed and minimizes the time the vehicle needs to be connected. For commercial applications and fleet operations where multiple drivers and vehicles share a single charging station, higher-output chargers reduce wait time and maximize utilization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eeCharge Level 2 Speed Comparison\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eeCharge 32 Amp Level 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~7.7 kW · ~20–25 miles of range per hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eeCharge 40 Amp Level 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~9.6 kW · ~25–30 miles of range per hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eeCharge 48 Amp Level 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~11.5 kW · ~30–36 miles of range per hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eActual range added per hour varies by vehicle onboard charger capacity and battery efficiency.
