Verified customer Verified Customer"I had been researching how to charge my Tesla on just my solar energy when I found Emporia had reasonably priced hardware with good reviews, so I made the purchase. I'm now charging from my panels during the day while working from home instead of buying expensive utility power at night. The utility recently made it more expensive to charge overnight so now I just won't use any of their overpriced power."
JJ"I just got new Model Y and I tried install car charger at home. I have 200A service but since all my major appliances are electric some electrician quoted a panel upgrade to 400A which cost over $7k. Some others quoted with attached load management device which cost over $800 device only. After internet research I found the Emporia Pro will fit my needs and budget. Electrician installed and all works great."
Lynn"This is a terrific EV charger. It charges quickly and efficiently. My installers were able to get it installed easily. The app is also very easy to use. Also, the customer service folks are responsive and helpful. Really glad we chose Emporia to work with."

Most of the time, yes — and that's what makes it different. The Emporia Pro Level 2 EV Charger with PowerSmart automatically adjusts its charge rate based on your home's real-time energy use, so it works within your panel's existing capacity instead of overwhelming it. For most homeowners, that means skipping the $3,000–$8,000 panel upgrade that other chargers require. PowerSmart runs on the bundled Emporia Vue 3 Energy Monitor, which installs inside your electrical panel and measures your home's load every second.
