A portable Level 2 is going to be as expensive as a home Level 2.

Most portable Level 2 chargers are dual Level 1 and 2.

Do you want to be spending that much money?

Unfortunately OEM Level 1 is also pretty expensive.

The Lectron Level 1 is $199, Lectron is a known quality brand but not UL Listed: https://smile.amazon.com/Lectron-Level-Charger-Extension-UL-Certified/dp/B08HHBDQ88 Can you live with Level 1 charging at home until you get your Level 2 set up?

If you just want a level 1 charger go with the Lectron. The Webasto can be plugged into a 220 volt. It maybe good if you travel and there are any 220 volt plugs around. For me I went with the lectron since I know very few places who will have a 220 volt around. Don't get me wrong, I have a chargepoint flex at home that uses a 220V plug. The lectron though goes with me if I can't find a charging station. A trickle charge is better than nothing.

Depends on how much you want to spend. Amazon has a lot of portable J1772 chargers for around $200. Most of them are all made in the same Chinese plant, just with different brand names.

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Lectron-Level-Charger-Extension-J1772/dp/B08HHBDQ88/ref=sr_1_38?dchild=1&keywords=j1772+portable+level+1&qid=1602779621&refinements=p_72%3A2661618011&rnid=2661617011&sr=8-38

Have you checked the plug and wire for any damage on your old one? They're pretty sturdy but improper hanging can cause a wire to fail.
