What this charger delivers
The MSI EV Life Type 1 is a Level 2 EVSE rated at 9.6 kW and 40 A. It uses a SAE J1772 connector to add roughly 29-39 miles of range per hour for drivers who need faster overnight charging at home or at a workplace bay.
Installation and supply limits
The unit plugs into a NEMA 14-50 receptacle on a 240 V circuit and comes with a 24.6 ft cable. Its IP55 and IK08 ratings mean it withstands rain, dust and moderate impact, so it can be mounted indoors or outdoors without extra enclosures.
Check your vehicle and wiring first
Confirm that the car accepts a Type 1 J1772 inlet and can draw the full 40 A; some models limit the current lower. Verify the branch circuit and breaker are sized for continuous 40 A duty and that a NEMA 14-50 outlet is already present or can be installed by a qualified electrician.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 40 A NEMA 14-50 model or a lower-amperage version?
The 40 A NEMA 14-50 unit delivers the full 9.6 kW output; choose it if your electrical panel supports a 50 A circuit, otherwise a lower-amperage model matches a smaller breaker.
What does the 9.6 kW rating actually add to my car's range each hour?
At 9.6 kW and 40 A on a 240 V supply the charger adds roughly 29 to 39 miles of range per hour depending on the vehicle's onboard converter efficiency.
How does the SAE J1772 Type 1 connector limit what I can charge?
The J1772 Type 1 plug works with any North American EV that uses the same inlet; it caps the session at the charger's 40 A maximum and cannot connect to vehicles that only accept CCS or Tesla NACS without an adapter.
