FLO is introducing its next generation of home chargers that was born in the extreme winters of Canada and proven across North America.

“In EV driver surveys, we found that EV drivers overwhelmingly want a home charger that is durable and backed by a warranty that protects their investment,” said Louis Tremblay, FLO president and CEO, in a news release. “With a multitude of home charging options, drivers want to know they have a trusted partner, like the FLO Home charger.”

The new chargers are available with a choice of a J3400 connector (also known as NACS or the Tesla connector) or a J1772 connector.

The chargers support electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids.

Highlights of the EV chargers include:

• A highly robust, impact-resistant enclosure that withstands hot and cold temperatures and corrosive climates.
• An easy-to-manipulate 25-foot (7.62 m) cable that stays flexible and is built to withstand daily use.
• Engineered to accommodate unique needs of various homes and garages with multiple wiring, cable management and pedestal options.
• Embedded heat sensors in both the vehicle-side connector and the dwelling-side plug help detect overheating issues, protecting the charger, vehicle and dwelling.
• An industry-leading limited warranty covering five years of residential use/one year of commercial use.
• Smart charging via Wi-Fi allows owners to manage access with just a tap on the FLO app.

“Buying a house and a car are often the most significant purchases for a family,” said Nathan Yang, FLO chief product officer, in the release. “We engineered the new generation of FLO Home chargers to help protect these investments and future-proof EV charging whether its today’s crossover or tomorrow’s heavy-duty electric pickup truck.”

There are three options to choose from. They are:

• FLO Home X3 – This charger includes an industrial-grade thermoplastic enclosure and features a 50A/12kW output.
• FLO Home X6 – Featuring a heavy-duty aluminum enclosure, this 50A/12kW premium charger provides additional flexibility with a detachable cable holster.
• FLO Home X8 – The X8 offers the ultimate power output and ruggedness to meet the charging needs of high-performance cars and trucks. It features 80A/19.2 kW output, the most allowed by a Level 2 charger in North America, along with a detachable holster.

The new FLO Home EV chargers will be on sale this summer. Learn more at the FLO online store.
