Changelog
- 2026-09-28 — Page created (Early phase). 10 chargers listed at recorded prices, all availability-verified on amazon.com on 2026-09-21 via the Amazon product API (buy box + price + in-stock required). Built from the 15-model EV charger roster: 5 roster models were dropped fail-closed — the ChargePoint HomeFlex Hardwired J1772 (50A) was in stock on 2026-09-20 at $538.02 but showed no buy box at the 2026-09-21 check; the Tesla Universal Wall Connector rendered with no buy box, no price anchor and no add-to-cart (ghost listing); the ChargePoint HomeFlex NACS 14-50 plug-in had no featured offer; the EvoCharge iEVSE and Siemens VersiCharge were degraded listings (1–3 units at roughly double historical pricing); the JuiceBox Pro 40 had no buy box and no price. EVIQO and WOLFBOX stay reserve-only and are not listed. No certification claims are made anywhere on this page — registry verification was blocked during research, so certification status is recorded as unverified rather than asserted. No Black Friday discounts asserted yet.

Emporia EV Charger Deals
The Emporia Classic 48A is the strongest value pick for most homes: up to 48A on a 240V circuit, a 25-foot cable, and NEMA 14-50 plug or hardwired installation, with Wi-Fi scheduling, home energy monitoring and solar integration via a separate Emporia Vue monitor. At the recorded price it undercuts every comparable 48A unit on this page.
Emporia Classic Level 2 48A
48A max output on a 240V circuit, J1772 connector, 25 ft cable, NEMA 14-50 plug or hardwired installation. Wi-Fi scheduling, home energy monitoring, solar integration (requires a separate Emporia Vue monitor). Specs per the manufacturer's product page and the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: manufacturer product page + listing title)
$449.00 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: Best price-to-spec ratio for a 48A home charger with app control. At $449.00 it sits roughly $120 under the 50A NACS ChargePoint and $150 under the 50A J1772 Autel at the same check. Trade-off: J1772 only, so a NACS vehicle needs an adapter.
Lectron EV Charger Deals
Lectron holds both ends of this page's price range: the Nexus is the cheapest 48A hardwired NACS unit, and the two Portable EVSE models are the cheapest chargers on the roster outright. Three Lectron picks on one page is unusual, and it reflects a real pattern — Lectron undercuts the premium brands at the same amperage without an established certification record.
Lectron Nexus NACS 48A
48A output, native NACS/J3400 connector, hardwired-only installation, 23 ft cable. The lowest-priced 48A hardwired NACS charger in this lineup. Specs per the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: listing title)
$429.99 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: Cheapest route to a 48A hardwired NACS charger on this page — about $19 under the Emporia 48A and roughly $455 under the Tesla Wall Connector. Hardwired only, so budget for an electrician.
Lectron Portable EVSE 40A
40A portable J1772 EVSE on a NEMA 14-50 outlet, 40A output, no hardwired installation required. The lowest-priced charger on this page. Specs per the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: listing title)
$159.99 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The budget entry point on the page and the pick to watch hardest for a Black Friday cut — portable units at this price band move the most. Needs an existing NEMA 14-50 outlet.
Lectron Portable 40A (14-50)
40A portable J1772 unit on a NEMA 14-50 outlet, 40A output, no hardwired installation required. The second Lectron portable variant that passed the check, at a recorded $110 above the Lectron Portable EVSE. Specs per the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: listing title)
$269.99 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The same 40A portable J1772 spec as the EVSE above at a materially higher recorded price. Compare the two listings directly at the buy box — the spec sheet is effectively identical and the cheaper card is the default pick.
ChargePoint EV Charger Deals
ChargePoint's HomeFlex platform is the feature-richest on this page — app-adjustable output, 23-foot cable, NEMA Type 3R enclosure for indoor or outdoor install. Both variants that passed the check are listed; the hardwired J1772 (50A) dropped out at the final check and is noted below.
ChargePoint HomeFlex Hardwired NACS (50A)
App-adjustable 16/24/32/40/48/50A output, NACS connector, hardwired installation, 23 ft cable, Wi-Fi (2.4/5 GHz) and Bluetooth, NEMA Type 3R enclosure rated for indoor or outdoor installation. Specs per the manufacturer datasheet and listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: manufacturer datasheet + listing title)
$516.71 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: only 6 units shown (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The most adjustable unit on the page — if your panel cannot carry 50A you can dial it down through the app instead of buying a smaller charger. Stock was thin at the check, so treat the buy box as a real constraint rather than assume availability.
ChargePoint HomeFlex Plug-in J1772
NEMA 14-50 / 6-50 plug-in installation, output capped at 32–40A in NEMA configurations, J1772 connector, 23 ft cable, app control, NEMA Type 3R enclosure. Priced above the hardwired NACS variant at the same check. Specs per the manufacturer datasheet; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: manufacturer datasheet + listing title)
$599.00 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The plug-in route to the HomeFlex feature set — the right call if you already have a 14-50 outlet and want app control without an electrician. Honest caveat: you give up roughly 20% of the hardwired variant's price and the higher amperage ceiling.
Wallbox EV Charger Deals
The Pulsar Plus 40A is the load-management pick: scheduling plus dynamic load management on a plug-in NEMA 14-50 footprint. Solar-aware features need a separate Wallbox power meter accessory, which is not included.
Wallbox Pulsar Plus 40A Plug-in
40A output, J1772 connector, NEMA 14-50 plug-in installation, 25 ft cable. Supports scheduling and dynamic load management; solar-aware features require a separate Wallbox power meter accessory (not included). Specs per the listing title and manufacturer product page; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: manufacturer product page + listing title)
$649.99 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The smart plug-in pick for load management. Priced above the ChargePoint plug-in at the same check, so the deciding factor is the load-management software rather than the sticker.
Autel EV Charger Deals
The MaxiCharger AC Elite is the 50A J1772 option — adjustable output, a 25-foot cable and app control over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, matching the ChargePoint hardwired on amperage at a comparable recorded price.
Autel MaxiCharger AC Elite 50A
50A adjustable output, J1772 connector, hardwired installation, 25 ft cable, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth app control. Specs per the manufacturer's product page and the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: manufacturer product page + listing title)
$599.00 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: Best 50A J1772 option with a long cable for a large garage. Sits about $82 under the ChargePoint hardwired NACS at the same check if your vehicle is J1772, and about $150 under the Tesla-branded equivalent.
Tesla EV Charger Deals
Both Tesla units that passed the check are listed. The Wall Connector is the branded permanent install at the top of this page's price range; the Mobile Connector is the no-installation budget route for the same vehicle family.
Tesla Wall Connector (48A)
48A output, native NACS connector, hardwired installation, 24 ft cable. The highest-priced fixed unit on this page at the recorded price. Specs per the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: listing title)
$885.00 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The branded 48A NACS wall unit — native Tesla fit at a premium. The Lectron Nexus does the same 48A hardwired NACS job for roughly $429.99, about half the recorded price; the premium here buys the brand and Tesla's app integration, not the amperage.
Tesla Mobile Connector (32A)
32A output, NACS connector, portable, 20 ft cable. No installation required if a suitable outlet already exists. Specs per the listing title; no independent certification verification performed. (Source: listing title)
$300.00 recorded
Recorded price — not a live offer (2026-09-21)
Availability at last check: in stock (2026-09-21). Black Friday deal status: not yet live.
Verdict: The budget Tesla pick — portable, no electrician, and less than half the Wall Connector's recorded price. The trade-off is real: 32A against 48A roughly doubles charge time on a 48A-capable vehicle, and a rental or older home may not have the outlet.
Availability Notes: What Dropped and Why
The roster behind this page was re-checked on 2026-09-21 via the Amazon product API. Results that failed the buy-box test are excluded rather than listed, and they stay off the page until a recheck passes:
- ChargePoint HomeFlex Hardwired J1772 (50A): in stock on 2026-09-20 at $538.02, but out of stock with no buy box at the 2026-09-21 check — dropped from this page.
- Tesla Universal Wall Connector: listing rendered but showed no buy box, no price anchor and no add-to-cart — a ghost-listing pattern. Excluded.
- ChargePoint HomeFlex NACS 14-50 plug-in: no featured offer at the original research check — excluded.
- EvoCharge iEVSE and Siemens VersiCharge: degraded listings (1–3 units at roughly double historical pricing) — excluded.
- JuiceBox Pro 40: no buy box, no price — excluded.
- EVIQO and WOLFBOX: reserve-only on our roster. No buy-box-confirmed offer passed, so they are not listed here.
Certification Status: Unverified
Several manufacturers publish UL, ETL or Energy Star claims for these chargers. Independent registry verification (UL Product iQ, Intertek directory) was blocked during research, so no certification is asserted anywhere on this page and certification status is recorded as unverified. This applies to every pick above, including the ones whose manufacturers publish claims. Before purchase, check the certification markings on the product itself and the manufacturer's official documentation directly.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do Black Friday EV charger deals start?
Black Friday 2026 falls on November 27. Amazon typically begins discounting home EV chargers in late October, with the deepest discounts in the week of the sale. This page records prices from September 21, 2026 as a baseline so you can judge the deals when they appear.
Are the prices on this page live Black Friday discounts?
No. Every price here is a recorded observation from amazon.com taken on September 21, 2026, not a live offer and not a claimed discount. We do not assert a was/now saving until a Black Friday price is actually observed. Prices change frequently, so each price carries its recording date.
How much can I save on a Level 2 EV charger on Black Friday?
Home Level 2 chargers in this lineup range from $159.99 to $885.00 at the recorded baseline. Historical Black Friday discounts on this category run roughly 15–25% off list, so a 48A unit near $430 could approach the mid-$300s during the sale. Treat that range as history, not a promise.
Which Black Friday EV charger deal is best for a Tesla?
For a permanent install, the Tesla Wall Connector (48A, recorded $885.00) or the Lectron Nexus NACS 48A (recorded $429.99) both charge Tesla vehicles natively. For a budget or rental-friendly option, the Tesla Mobile Connector (32A, recorded $300.00) needs no installation.
Do I need an electrician before Black Friday to install an EV charger?
Hardwired chargers (48–50A units) require a licensed electrician and a dedicated circuit sized to 125% of the charger's continuous load. NEMA 14-50 plug-in and portable units only need an existing 240V outlet. If you want a hardwired unit installed before the holidays, schedule the electrician before the sale, not after.
What is the difference between J1772 and NACS connectors?
J1772 is the standard connector for most non-Tesla EVs in North America. NACS (also standardized as J3400) is used by Tesla and increasingly adopted by other automakers. Some NACS chargers require an adapter for J1772 vehicles, and vice versa. Check your vehicle's port before buying.
How does CompareSmartDevice verify these deals?
Every pick passed an amazon.com availability check on September 21, 2026 through the Amazon product API: a live buy box and a recorded price were both required. Listings without an active buy box, without a price, or with a future-availability date were dropped fail-closed. Six roster models were excluded for that reason — see the availability notes above. Dropped rows stay off the page until a recheck passes.
Are these chargers UL or ETL certified?
We do not assert certification status anywhere on this page. Several manufacturers publish UL, ETL or Energy Star claims, but independent registry verification was blocked during our research, so certification is recorded as unverified. Check the certification markings on the product and the manufacturer's official documentation before purchase.
What happens when a deal expires?
Expired deals are removed from the page and noted in the changelog — we never leave tombstone cards pointing at dead offers. The Last-updated stamp and changelog at the top of this page record every change.
