I suppose if you added up the time it took to acquire and assemble something that would work (a 208 to 240 volt transformer), plus factor in the time you had to work to earn the money to buy such a device, you would be better off time wise just to wait a bit longer for your car to charge on those rare occasions you have 208 v instead of 240.
I guess you could also use a 240/24 step down transformer like an auto transformer if you wanted to..just upsize it a bit because the primary is running on 208 instead of 240... then you could add 24 volts to the 208 get you a bit closer to your 240.
