03Design & Details

Small details, daily payoff

/01

Aurora status panel

One glance tells you everything: charging, topped up, or night-quiet.

  • Readable from across a two-car garage
  • Low-glare illumination for quiet residential streets

No exposed vents, so rain, snow and road salt stay outside. The jacket stays flexible down to −20 °C.

  • Indoor and outdoor wall mounting
  • 25 ft cable reaches a second driveway bay

  • Live session and energy reporting
  • Firmware updates over Wi-Fi

04Installation

Two ways to plug in

Both configurations are performed by a licensed electrician — we'll connect you with an installer in your area.

Fastest

Hardwired

Direct from your panel. No plug, no outlet — full 12 kW.

Up to 12 kW output Cleanest wall finish, tamper-resistant Best choice for a permanent home setup
Most flexible

NEMA 14-50 plug

Into an existing 240 V outlet. Ideal if you may move the charger later.

Up to 9.6 kW on a 40 A continuous circuit Takes the charger with you when you move Requires a dedicated 240 V receptacle
S·01

Home assessment

Share your panel capacity and parking layout. We'll tell you which configuration fits before anyone touches a wall.

S·02

Licensed installation

A licensed electrician handles the circuit, mounting and commissioning — typically a single visit.

S·03

Pair and charge

Connect the charger to your Wi-Fi, set a schedule, plug in — and let the aurora light do the talking.

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician, and a permit or inspection may be required in your municipality. Every home is different: available panel capacity, circuit length and local code determine the final configuration and cost.

06Questions

Before you buy

Will NorthernLit 1 charge my car?
NorthernLit 1 is available with the two connector standards used by electric vehicles sold across North America — J1772 and NACS. If your vehicle has either inlet, you can charge at full Level 2 speed. Not sure which one you need? Tell us your make and model and we'll confirm before you order.
Should I choose hardwired or the NEMA 14-50 plug?
Choose hardwired for the full 12 kW and the cleanest installation — it's the right answer for a home you plan to stay in. Choose the NEMA 14-50 plug if you already have a 240 V receptacle in your garage or may move the charger to another property. Plug-in installation delivers up to 9.6 kW.
What does my electrician need to know?
Your installer will confirm available panel capacity and run a dedicated circuit for the charger. Installation must be carried out by a licensed electrician, and a permit or inspection may be required locally. We can share the technical documentation your electrician needs — just request it by email.
How is it mounted, and can it go outdoors?
NorthernLit 1 mounts to any suitable wall with the included bracket, template and hardware. The enclosure is weather-sealed and rated for indoor and outdoor use, so a garage, carport or exterior wall by the driveway all work — your electrician will confirm the best position and cable routing.
What does the warranty cover?
Every NorthernLit 1 is covered by a 3-year warranty. Full terms — what's covered, what isn't, and how to make a claim — are published in our Warranty & Sales Terms, and are included with your unit's documentation.
How do I order, and who installs it?
Reach out with your vehicle and a photo of your electrical panel. We'll confirm the right configuration, quote the unit, and connect you with an installation partner in your area. Charging hardware and installation are quoted separately so you always know what you're paying for.
