The verdict

Why it scored a 77

At $649.99 the Wallbox Pulsar Plus is the smallest charger in this group, a 40A plug-in unit under eight inches square with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, scheduling and power sharing across multiple Wallbox units. Features read 84 and quality 80, but value collapses to 60: this is the most expensive 40A charger here, and the Emporia and Grizzl-E deliver the same 9.6 kW for hundreds less. The myWallbox app and its Wi-Fi reliability also draw recurring complaints in reviews, and faster charging means stepping up to the separate 48A hardwired model. It suits buyers who care most about a compact, tidy garage install.
