Want to make a comprehensive list here.
Pls post options you know of / use here.
1. EVSE upgrade
Upgrade the EVSE that comes with Leaf.
Max Power : 5kW (?)
Upgrade Cost : $287
New : $1,027
link : evseupgrade.com
2. Open EVSE
Get a kit from an open source hardware design. Buy rest of the items and assemble.
Max Power > 6kW
Cost : ~$500
3. Blink EVSE
Blink EVSEs have had over heating issues with RAV4EV and Fit EV. No issues with Leaf '13 have been reported. My Blink is working without any overheating issues. If you see any overheating issues (monitor every 30 minutes when you charge the first few times), either ask Ecotality to upgrade it or if out of warranty upgrade it by changing the cable or other means.

Cost : $0 to ~$200
