UNITED CHARGERS CEO ON THE DEBUT OF THE 80-AMP GRIZZL-E ULTIMATE EV CHARGER

EV Channels Review

The Grizzl-E Ultimate represents a significant leap in AC charging technology, offering an unprecedented 80-amp output, the maximum allowed by code. While this high amperage is its headline feature, the charger's true flexibility lies in its adjustable output, allowing users to set it from 16 to 80 amps via internal dip switches, catering to various circuit capacities and future-proofing installations. Priced competitively at $699, it undercuts many 48-amp chargers. The CEO emphasizes its robustness and suitability for commercial applications, highlighting a planned peer-to-peer payment system and low monthly fees for hosts, aiming to create a viable business case for public charging infrastructure. The charger is also launching simultaneously with both J1772 and NACS connectors, though initial quantities will be limited due to the company's self-funded, capitalist approach. The company also addresses past software issues with the Grizzl-E Smart, assuring users of the new, proprietary Grizzl-E Connect app's improved functionality and offering replacements for older units.
