Anyone know which EVSE does well with the RAV with a mechanical timer attached? If you have this setup please post up which EVSE you have and how it's working for you.

I'm having trouble with my Levition 40a EVSE attached to a GE 40a mechanical timer. The RAV has not charged on occassion even though the timer went off and power was flowing to the Leviton EVSE. sometimes it does work, but we need a rock solid system that works every single night. I want to be able to only charge during the 12-6am time to use the super off peak rates with SCE. I have another thread about my troubles with this unit, but wanted to find out what set ups others are using with a timer that has worked well for them. Thanks!

The Blink doesn't charge the Rav4 with a mechanical timer powering the unit. My cable has been replaced and the J1772 connector only gets to 125f at 30 amps.
