Lectron's portable J1772 EV charger is a compact, WiFi-enabled Level 1 charging solution with a 16-foot cable and 12A NEMA 5-15 plug for convenient overnight charging.

This lightweight charging unit pairs a J1772 connector with smart app control and a long 16 ft cord so you can plug in at home, on the road, or at any standard 120V outlet. Built-in safety protections and an IP65-rated control box let you monitor sessions and schedule charging from your phone while the included carrying case keeps everything organized for travel.

How does the Lectron charger work with my electric or plug-in hybrid car?

The Lectron charger uses the J1772 standard connector, compatible with most EVs and plug-in hybrids sold in North America. It draws up to 12 amps from a standard 120V NEMA 5-15 outlet to provide steady, overnight charging that replenishes daily driving range.

• J1772 plug fits BMW, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Chevy and more
• Delivers up to 1.44 kW of charging power (Level 1)
• 16 ft cable length for flexible connection to vehicle inlet
• NEMA 5-15 compatibility for standard household outlets

What smart features and controls are available through the app?

Connect the charger to your home WiFi and use the Lectron App to check charging status, set schedules, and limit kWh delivered per session. Remote monitoring and scheduling help you take advantage of off-peak rates or ensure the car is charged before you leave.

• Real-time session monitoring via the app
• Programmable start/stop times and kWh limits
• Push notifications for session start, completion, or faults
• Access controls to prevent unauthorized use

Is the charger safe and durable for everyday use?

Safety features include overvoltage, overcurrent, and short-circuit protection with status shown by LED indicators. The control module has an IP65 rating to resist dust and low-pressure water, and the unit ships with a protective carrying case for storage and transport.

• Multiple electrical protections for safer charging
• LED indicators for quick fault and status checks
• IP65-rated control box for outdoor-capable performance
• Durable carrying case included for organized storage

How much range can I expect from overnight charging?

Using a standard 120V outlet at 12A, the Lectron charger supplies about 1.44 kW, which typically adds roughly 30–40 miles of range over a full overnight session, depending on your vehicle’s efficiency. This makes it ideal for daily commuters or as a convenient backup charging option when a Level 2 station isn’t available.

• Approximate overnight range gain: 30–40 miles
• Best for daily charging and topping up range
• Works anywhere with a compatible household outlet
• Portable for travel and temporary charging needs

Who is this for? The Lectron portable J1772 charger suits drivers who need a reliable, simple-to-use Level 1 solution—commuters, apartment residents, or travelers who want smart app controls and a long 16 ft cable without installing a dedicated Level 2 station. It’s also a practical second charger for households with occasional guests or for EV owners who value portability, app scheduling, and basic outdoor durability.
