Can you set a charging "off" time?

[DeaneG]

The issue I've run into is that the lucid dies not recognize when the charger wakes up without first recognizing it is attached to a live charging cable. If I plug in and don't disable supply side scheduling the lucid eventually forgets that it was plugged in and won't be triggered by the chargepoint turning on. If anyone has a chargepoint and had been successful with other behavior I'm all ears. It seems that 1) this is an issue with lucid software and hardware that isn't simple to fix 2) I wouldn't know if I needed to change my behavior given update release notes aren't very detailed

Right, I was thinking that the charger would be on and ready to charge for 23 hours of the day, all day except for 7am-8am. Having the Air set to begin charging at midnight should then work any time you plug the Air in, except between 7am and 8am.

For those using Home Assistant, I have two automations that address this. First, I use HA to wake the car up two minutes before my Enphase EVSE is scheduled to start charging--the car is then awake when charging starts and has no issues. Next, I use HA to adjust the charge limit downward once my target limit is reached (I set the limit to 83% and then have HA drop the limit to 80%--this prevents the "topping up" problem.

Isn't the energy of a "top off" pretty minimal? When I wake the car using the app, I'm greeted with charging started follow by charging complete about a minute later.

I believe the NYS incentives are based on NEVER charging the var during certain hours (if you never charge between 7am and midnight we will send you a check for $25 each month).
