PowerNEMA 14-50 or hardwired, 240V, up to 50A
Why it stands out
Adjustable up to 50A, widely available and Energy Star certified
HA integration surfaces session state, power, energy and cost
Polished consumer app and reliability
Reasons to hesitate
Cloud-only: the HA integration is cloud polling and needs ChargePoint credentials
No local API; control depends on ChargePoint servers
Does not function for automation if the cloud is unreachable
Best for
Buyers who already own a ChargePoint and want cloud energy stats in HA
Avoid if
you want fully local control with no cloud account
Privacy and local-control notes
It is not local: all control and the Home Assistant integration route through the ChargePoint cloud, so nothing works if those servers are unreachable.
