CONGRATS and welcome to the forum!As a matter of fact, you have one other option . . . buy USED! And it just so happens I have a Leviton EVB32-5ML for sale ($700 or best offer). It will more than meet your 240V Level 2 charging needs very well even though the output rating is 32A max. I have used it to charge my 2012 VOLT as well "as is". At 3.3kW it consistently fully recharges my VOLT in less 4 hours. It takes about 4 to 5 hours to recharge my 2012 RAV4 EV at 7.7kW. Although more costly, the JESLA would be the best choice for an almost exclusively used portable unit. However, to a certain extent ALL "plug-in" EVSEs are actually quite portable as well, including my Leviton for sale. Some are just bulkier in size, but that comes with the territory because the input and output cables required by all makes and models add greatly to the overall weight and bulkiness. Still, there is nothing that says any "plug-in" EVSE can not be hauled around in the back of a RAV4 EV or any other EV for that matter. The Leviton EVB series mounts on the wall in a fixed bracket and plugs in to a wall receptable, so it is easily removable whenever the need arises to take with you in the car.I have posted more details about it here . . . http://www.myrav4ev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1284
