Has anyone tried this dual-level portable J1772 charger from Lectron? It's advertised as "providing up to 31 miles of range per hour". Can anyone confirm?

You might be misunderstanding what the product is offering.
There is no battery contained in this charging cord.
You must plug into an existing 5-15 outlet to gain power for the charge.
It is only "portable" in the sense that it packs up into a case for easy transportation in the trunk while driving.
If there is no 5-15 power outlet available to you, this unit will provide no charging.
To the extent that you can plug it into a NEMA 240v outlet that provides 32 amps, yes, it should give you 31 miles per hour charging.
