Thanks, my case is pretty vanilla, no special characters, Chrome on Android phone and Chromebook and PC. Tried it perhaps ten times with a couple factory resets in the middle. It's definitely on my network but won't talk.
Much less than I expected! Thats great!
It depends on
I have plenty of slots in my breaker box and the station would be maybe 4 feet from the box. I have 150 amps on the main breaker coming into my townhouse I noticed so I am not sure if 100 amp charging is possible? Thats beyond my skill level.
I suppose you can increase amperage at night when you sleep to maximize 80amp. Day time AC on, you have to reduce amp. It’s nice to have such high charger to have that option.
My instal quote was $500. Again, just on the other side of the breaker box.
My 200 amp circuit breaker box was all used up. The QMerit subcontractor had to merge 4 slots into 2 slots to open up 2 slots for 60amp breaker for my Wallbox charger. I wish they made a sub panel instead. My box hardwire to charger location is about 35 ft going thru ceiling then coming down. Qmerit quoted me $2200 in Houston market, FYI. Now I saw the Lucid charger 100 amp, I wonder how would this work or I have to create new panel. Anyway, I envy you are getting 100amp grade charger.
Did you submit pictures of your panel so they can estimate equipment needed to do your work? Or that comes after $149.99 review? I’m not sure how this V2H charging work yet and how this charger can provide that. I know Ford charger is advertising the bi-directional charging. But I haven’t seen or known anyone is doing this online yet.I filled out the long QMerit form (from the Lucid website) and they emailed me an estimate of $1,599 but they didn't explain what was going to be done. I had written in the comments "Does this include equipment for reverse charging" but no one ever got back to me. They want a refundable $149.99 to "start review". Do you need to pay them to answer your question?
The V2H necessitates a transfer switch which is separate from the charger just as a fyi.I filled out the long QMerit form (from the Lucid website) and they emailed me an estimate of $1,599 but they didn't explain what was going to be done.

No because without a transfer switch you can't do it.
I'm going to guess, based on the state of the charger's software, that bidirectional capability is at least 6-12 months away.
Yeah, I was frustrated by this too because they’re unclear, but that’s exactly right - it really is trivially refundable, but you pay the $149 and then they contact your local electricians (who are generally going to be really really good) and you talk to them directly. You’ll get a few quotes most likely. Simplifies payment too, since it’s all done through the QMerit site, and the $149 goes towards it.I filled out the long QMerit form (from the Lucid website) and they emailed me an estimate of $1,599 but they didn't explain what was going to be done.

Thank you - this is what I was trying to get out of QMerit.
Yes, a half dozen pictures as they requested. It's quite a questionnaire. Then the email said $1,599 estimate, give us $149 to start the process. With SO MANY questions, and this being an installation for a Lucid Charger which does bi-directional power, I would have either expected a check box "Do you want bi-directional power capability?" or something stating that it did not include this.
I had Qmerit estimate in the same ball park. The local guy was like “naaahhh that’s too much.” I wonder if it’s an over estimate to manage expectations
No. That’s just their cost
