The 2024 Lightning cannot charge at 80 amps due to lack of dual onboard chargers. HOWEVER, 48 amp should be doable. How does your Grizzl-E show 46 amps if you dont mind me asking? I know my tesla wall charger outputs 240V 48amps to my lightning aka ~11.5Kw/hr, but Fordpass shows 10.6ish from what I assume as charging loss. I was wondering if you were going off based on that.

The 2024 Ford Lighting has the fast charging port, have you tried changing the cord to a fast charging cord. I bet that would work, but at that point you might as well buy their charger.

As explained above, it's due to the limit of the On-Board charger in the truck. Nothing to do with the cord.
You also posted very incorrect information here and here. You have been very active today!
