Don't know about the Midiplus Classic 25, but two options I've seen on here a lot are the Artuira Keystep and the Rock Band 3 Keyboard controller

Both have 5-pin midi out. The rock band keyboard can be powered by batteries, and is probably the cheapest midi keyboard control you can get with the midi out option. I haven't used it, but it seems like it'd be perfect for a portable setup.
I have the Keystep. Ended up going with it even thought it is 4x the price of the rock band controller for a few reasons. It has a bigger range (32 vs 25 keys I believe), more controls (not sure if the rock band keyboard has octave controls), and a nice built in appegiator and sequencer that can sync with the volcas. It's not "sit on a park bench and play" portable but it's pretty small (while still being very playable), and can be powered by USB, so you could run it off a small battery pack.
You can use this as a cheap MIDI sequencer, though it's only two octaves: https://www.amazon.com/Rock-Band-Wireless-Keyboard-Wii-Nintendo/dp/B003RS19XE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522098955&sr=8-1&keywords=rockband+3+keyboard+wii
