Every published warranty term we can find
This is the whole registry, sorted longest first. 18 of 20 manufacturers publish a term at all.
Every charger in our registry, sorted by the warranty term its manufacturer publishes. Each figure is read off the maker’s own spec sheet or product page on the dated visit recorded with that product. A blank is not a short warranty — it is a maker who does not publish a term, and it reads “Not published” rather than being filled in.| Charger | Published warranty | Max output | Install | Enclosure |

Three things in that table are worth saying out loud.
The category is flat. 15 of the 20chargers publish exactly three years. That is not a coincidence or a cartel; it is what happens when a young category settles on a number its competitors have all matched. The practical consequence is that the warranty almost never breaks a tie between two chargers you are actually choosing between — so you should stop using it as a shopping filter after the first pass and go back to the things that do differ.
The leader is a specialist. The five-year term belongs to the Autel MaxiCharger 80A, which is the fastest AC charger you can install at a house and the wrong answer for most houses. It needs a 100-amp circuitfor full output, which is a service upgrade in most homes, and almost no EV accepts more than 11.5 kW on AC — the limit lives inside the car, not on the wall. Buy it for a specific vehicle that genuinely takes 80 amps, or for a panel you already have; do not buy it for the extra two years.
Two makers publish nothing. Grizzl-E Duo Connect 40A and Lectron Portable Level 2 Tesla Charger (NACS) carry no warranty term on the pages we read. We have not downgraded them for it beyond recording it, because a missing line on a spec sheet is a documentation gap rather than proof there is no coverage. But it is yours to ask about before you pay, and it is the honest reason neither one appears in our picks on this page.
What a warranty term does not tell you
The number of years is the only warranty fact any of these manufacturers publishes on the pages we cite. Everything a claim actually turns on is unpublished:
- Labor. Does the coverage pay the electrician who removes a dead hardwired unit and installs the replacement? No spec sheet we read says. On a hardwired charger that is a real cost; on a plug-in charger it is zero.
- New or refurbished. Whether a replacement unit is new is not stated anywhere we read.
- Shipping and downtime. Who pays to send a failed charger back, and how you charge in the meantime, are both unaddressed. If you have a portable charger in the trunk you have a free answer to the second one.
- What voids it.Outdoor mounting, a self-install, an uninspected circuit, a surge event — all plausible exclusions, none published. Our surge-protection page covers the one of those you can actually do something about.
We are not implying the manufacturers are hiding something. Warranty documents normally ship in the box or live behind a support portal rather than on a product page. But a page that told you “three years, parts and labor, no questions” would be making it up, so this one tells you what is published and what is not.
The one warranty that is not the charger’s
Worth knowing, because it is the warranty people actually worry about: the DOE notes that many automakers cover the EV’s own traction batteryfor 8 years / 100,000 miles, while also stating plainly that comprehensive data on EV battery failures is not available. Nothing about choosing a Level 2 charger changes that coverage — and if you are here because you are worried that a home charger will wear the pack out faster, we wrote a whole page on why it does not.
How we would actually use this table
Treat the warranty as a filter, not a ranking. Three passes:
One: rule out the blanks, deliberately. If two chargers suit you equally and one publishes a term, take the one that publishes a term. That is the entire legitimate use of this data on a tie.
Two: be honest about the two-year portables. The Lectron 40A and the ELEGRP 40A publish two years, and both are inexpensive portable units. For a charger that lives in the trunk as a backup, two years on a cheap unit is a fair trade. For the charger your household depends on every night, we would spend the difference.
Three: then forget it and buy on fit. Once the blanks are out, every charger left publishes three years and the warranty has told you everything it can. What is left is the stuff that actually changes your life with the thing: whether 48 amps is usable in your car and your panel, whether it needs to survive a winter outdoors, whether the cable reaches the charge port, and whether you want an app at all. Our choosing guide walks that in order, and the install-cost page covers the half of the budget that is not the charger.
