What's the maximum 120vac charge amperage of our Rav4's?
I've read threads about charging om TT-30 but wasn't sure what amperage rate the Rav would suckup.

Thanks

20 amps max at 120 volts. OEM charge cord is only 12 amps.
That's right. You have to have an EVSE that is properly configured to operate at 120 volts and signal the car that the higher current is available. A Jesla with a TT-30 to 14-50 adapter will do that. Even though the car is being told it can draw 40 amps, it will only draw 20, so it is safe.
