New Level 2 ac chargers with software-based charge control

By Michelle Froese | January 19, 2026

Soneil Spark has introduced a new line of residential and commercial Level 2 ac electric vehicle (EV) chargers designed for higher-current operation, enclosure durability, and software-based charge control.

The chargers are compatible with all EVs and plug-in hybrid vehicles and are intended for residential, multi-unit residential, fleet, and light commercial applications.

The product line includes 40, 48, and 80 A models, with plug-in and hardwired configurations. Higher-current models are intended to support faster Level 2 charging where electrical infrastructure allows.

All units are UL 2594 certified and IP66 rated for indoor and outdoor installation, and are designed, manufactured, and assembled in Canada.

Charging operation is managed through the Spark Mobile App, which allows users to schedule charging, monitor energy consumption, track charging history, and apply time-of-use rate schedules. The app supports remote control of charging sessions, energy cost tracking, and firmware updates delivered over the air, enabling charger configuration and optimization without on-device displays.

Commercial models support Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP), enabling integration with third-party charging networks, fleet management systems, and energy management platforms. Centralized monitoring, reporting, remote diagnostics, and scalability features support multi-charger commercial deployments.

The chargers use a compact wall-mounted design with LED status indicators.
