Default Level 2 charger

My building has installed the infrastructure for level 2 charging stations on our underground parking… I have to select a charger to be installed for our NX450+… any recommendations?

I installed the Emporia EV Charge three months ago. It's been working great.
Whatever you choose, make sure it's UL listed.

We bought Grizzl-E, works flawlessly, even down to -2. They have one with dual connections which is cool.

Chargepoint Home Flex here! (got it over the grizzl-e as it supported all input amperages, so if/when I can upgrade my power situation I can use the same charger)

grizzl-e has dip switches which control the voltages - also the voltages can be configured in the car.

The Home Flex has a mobile app which is quite nice, and is offered by many utility companies for a discount. I didn't want my usage shared out and I didn't need another app to check, for the grizzl-e was a lot cheaper and better for me - but the Home Flex is a nice unit.

Emporia is a "smart" charger, so it comes with an app. You can adjust amperages through the app. If you hardwire the charger, it can pull up to 48A. If you use the 14-50 outlet it will go to 40A.
Not relevant for our cars as they max out at 32A, but nice to have an option in case you get another electric with a more powerful charger.

I highly recommend ChargePoint as well. It works wonders for me.
