It might have been discussed before but is there any real difference between the lectron and the Tesla adapter? I have the A2Z pro adapter now. Wonder which is better or are they all the same?
That was a great write up. I got the A2Z pro adapter right after I bought the truck as I had read Ford was having issues sending them out. I’ve already done 2 cross country trips with the A2Z and I like it. Since my wife has a Blazer EV I’ll probably put the ford adapter in her car for emergencies. I doubt she will ever use it but better to have and not need. lol.After trying the Typhoon Pro, Typhoon and Ford / Tesla OEM adapter. Here are my thoughts on them.
They all work great and beats having to use Electrify America. The most user friendly is the Typhoon pro due to the single switch to control the CCS side and NACS side. I also like how easy it is to hold the Typhoon pro securely. The lip on the NACS side is a nice touch to make sure the adapter doesn’t slip out of your hand.
The Ford / OEM Tesla dual latch is a little more user friendly compared to original Typhoon but a little harder to grip securely while toggling both the latches. I think grip tape might be nice to have as long as it doesn’t mess with thermals.

Just info: on my former Mach E and now on my Lightning, when on a long trip I have found that the blue map ring (on Ford NAV) is a far, far better predictor of remaining range, especially as the battery available power dwindles. The blue ring interactively predicts remaining range pretty accurately, especially as conditions (speed, outside temperature, headwinds, road steepness) change while I drive.I was grateful for mine….range estimator was WAY off and got to use the free ford tow and the Tesla adapter last night.
no excessive heater used and cruising at 75 and 50 degrees and on full range showing 315 I got 210 then got to wait 4 hours for the tow truck…..
The elevation from Sacramento up towards Tahoe just murdered itJust info: on my former Mach E and now on my Lightning, when on a long trip I have found that the blue map ring (on Ford NAV) is a far, far better predictor of remaining range, especially as the battery available power dwindles.

I hope this info is helpful.
