One charger. Two voltage levels. The Battery Tender® eCharge 32 Amp Level 1+2 is the most flexible EV charger in the eCharge lineup — operating at 120V Level 1 from any standard outlet or switching to 240V Level 2 for full-speed charging at home. Energy Star certified for maximum charging efficiency, the eCharge 32 Amp Level 1+2 is the right choice for drivers who need Level 2 speed at home but want the flexibility of Level 1 when 240V is not available.
Level 1 and Level 2: The Key Difference
Level 1 charging runs on 120V household current and delivers approximately 1.9 kW — practical for overnight PHEV charging or daily EV range top-ups for low-mileage drivers. Level 2 charging runs on 240V and at 32 Amps delivers approximately 7.7 kW — adding roughly 20–25 miles of driving range per hour. A depleted mid-range EV battery that takes 40+ hours to recover at Level 1 recovers fully in 8–10 hours at Level 2. For most EV drivers with meaningful daily mileage, Level 2 is the practical standard for home charging.
Why Dual-Voltage Flexibility Matters
A dedicated hardwired Level 2 charger operates at 240V only and cannot be used anywhere that 240V is unavailable. The eCharge 32 Amp Level 1+2 operates at Level 1 wherever a standard outlet is available — travel, secondary properties, temporary situations, or any location where 240V has not been installed — and delivers full Level 2 speed where 240V is accessible. For drivers who charge at more than one location, dual-voltage capability eliminates the need for separate Level 1 and Level 2 equipment.
Charging Speed at Each Level
-
Level 1 (120V): ~1.9 kW · ~3–5 miles of range added per hour
-
Level 2 (240V, 32 Amp): ~7.7 kW · ~20–25 miles of range added per hour
Actual range added per hour varies by vehicle onboard charger capacity and battery efficiency. Vehicle onboard charger capacity is the limiting factor — a vehicle with a 7.2 kW onboard charger will charge at a maximum of 7.2 kW regardless of the station's output rating.
J1772 Standard Connector
The J1772 connector is the North American standard for Level 1 and Level 2 EV charging, compatible with all non-Tesla electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids sold in North America. No adapter is required for J1772-compatible vehicles across all major domestic and international manufacturers.
Energy Star Certified
The eCharge 32 Amp Level 1+2 is Energy Star certified — meeting EPA energy efficiency guidelines for EV charging equipment at both voltage levels. Energy Star certification ensures minimized standby consumption and optimized charging efficiency, reducing total operating cost across the full life of the unit.
Electrical Requirements for Level 2
Level 2 operation requires a dedicated 240V, 40 Amp circuit minimum. For new circuit installations, professional installation by a licensed electrician is recommended. The Level 1 mode operates from any standard 120V, 15–20 Amp outlet with no electrical modifications required.
Compatible Vehicles
Compatible with all J1772 non-Tesla battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids sold in North America — all major domestic and international manufacturers.
