The Quasar (not to be confused with the Quasar 2) is a DC Vehicle to Grid (V2G) electric car charger with a CHAdeMO connector. It is rated to charge or discharge a car at 7kW.

There is an official app to monitor and control the charger. The app can connect directly via Bluetooth, or indirectly over the internet if the charger is connected via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. The charger also has hand gesture recognition, and can be automated using a modified version of OCPP 1.6 .

In the event that something malfunctions and the charger needs to be reset, there is a restart button and a factory reset button in the app.[2] If the app is unable to connect to the charger, and power cycling the charger does not fix it, there are 2 reset buttons inside the unit.

---Reference needed---

Wallbox decided not to provide instructions to reset the charger, and instead stated that a qualified technician would need to perform the reset procedure.[3] The reset procedure involves removing and disassembling the display unit to access the 2 reset buttons inside, then re-attaching the disassembled display unit to the charger.

Once the opened display unit is attached to the charger and the charger is powered:

  • Press and hold both buttons at the same time
  • Wait 3 seconds then release the button labeled "RST"
  • Wait 10 seconds then release the other button

Any other combination of button pressing or holding will have no effect.

It is acceptable to create an incident summary before the main page for an incident has been created. To link to the page use the "Hatnote" or "Main" templates.
