Why would anyone buy a Lectron for more money vs A2Z?
Lectron is well known on a lot of forums, more well known than A2Z. That said, having used the AC and DC adapters, go with A2Z.

You can already register a Niro EV and an EV6 using the Tesla app. I don’t think there would be any issue changing a Niro EV or an EV6 at a Supercharger as long as you have an account and you use the Tesla app to activate the charger.
Last test I saw, no CCS vehicles other than Ford and Rivian would charge, even using the Tesla app.

Remember: this is not the case on Superchargers with MagicDocks. They will work with most other CCS vehicles.

I know what it says but I’m not sure I believe. Why would the Tesla app allow you to register if you won’t be allowed to charge? I would definitely try to Supercharge if I had an EV from another manufacturer and an adapter.
Drive one to a SuperCharger with an adapter and report back.

There is a ‘Handshake’ that has to take place and only the manufacturers that are approved can start a charging session.

At non Magic Dock Superchargers, only Ford & Rivian are currently the only brands that will work at V3+ Tesla Superchargers.

Once an agreement / contract is signed by other manufacturers, they will also join.
It's more than the agreement. Many have an agreement in place. It requires the Software & Charging teams for both Tesla and (insert other OEM here) to work together to develop the backend workflow which I'm fairly certain relies on a certificate exchange to validate the vehicle is authorized. If referencing Fords model there is likely software updates required on the vehicle side of things as well.
