The EV Hub vs Wallbox Pulsar Plus: Which Smart Charger Wins in Canada?
Both are smart EV chargers with app control. But the specs, price, and features tell different stories. Here is the full comparison.
Wallbox Pulsar Plus is a popular choice for Canadian EV owners who want app-controlled charging. But how does it stack up against The EV Hub Smart Home Charger? Here is the comparison.
Price
Wallbox Pulsar Plus: $695-899 CAD (varies by retailer). The EV Hub Smart 50A: $899 CAD with FREE connector holder.
Power
Wallbox Pulsar Plus: 48A / 11.5 kW. The EV Hub Smart 50A: 50A / 12 kW. The EV Hub delivers slightly more power, which means faster charging.
Key Differences
The EV Hub has a 2.8-inch LCD display built into the unit. Wallbox has no display - everything is app-only. If your phone dies or your WiFi goes down, The EV Hub still shows you charging status on the unit itself.
The EV Hub also includes Ethernet and OCPP compatibility. Wallbox does not support OCPP and has no Ethernet port. For anyone managing a charger in a condo, rental property, or small business, OCPP is the industry standard for networked charging management.
Both Have

- - UL/ETL certification for North America
- - 3-year warranty
- - Hardwired installation required
The Verdict
Wallbox Pulsar Plus is a sleek, compact charger with strong app control. The EV Hub Smart 50A delivers more power, has a built-in LCD, and adds Ethernet + OCPP for future-proofing. If you need more than just home use, The EV Hub is the smarter investment.
