Firn, Lesson learned. Thank you for your comments! This cost us $300 more for the 80A over the 48A version of the Grizzl-E—I’ve made bigger mistakes. The good part that someone mentioned earlier is that we’ll have a little future proofing built into our charging setup. Hopefully this thread...

MrLoganRoss, Yes, I agree that the 48A is adequate. Actually, the mobile 30A has been adequate for the six weeks we’ve owned the Lightning. My plan was to run the 80A Grizzl-E at a reduced rate (48A) due to conversations pointing to better battery health with a lower charge rate. But…I was...

BeeKind, I looked on Ford’s multiple sites this morning to see if I could dig up what I know now about the chargers (EVSEs) and their verbiage still easily leads to the idea the 80A is still possible. They list miles per hour gained during charging which hides what the amperage is, although you...

JRT, looking on the bright side—nice! CAVUBob

JRT, Yup, I know that and still said it that way—sorry. CAVUBob

Dinozero and Firn, The 2023s were a much better price, but as we researched the Lightning, the battery heat pump seemed to be a plus that was only on the 24s. As we did our research on the two chargers Ford offered, it seemed they slanted to the FCSP due to the large battery of the Lightning...

RickLightning, During the Grizzl-E install, the installer tested our voltage and it was actually 251, which seemed off to me. My knowledge of electrics is low. I’ve heard values of 110 to 120 and 220 to 240, but not 251. The installer thought the high value was due to our proximity to the...

Potato, I’m unaware about this idea the Ford Charge Station Pro won’t work either. When I talked to Ford tech support, they led me to believe it WOULD work up to the rated 80A. ? CAVUBob

Michael CA, I’ll attach a couple screenshots from the Grizzl-E web app to show where I came up with the 46A value.

Moderation NOTE: issues resolved further in the thread, most 24+ Lightnings only have a single 48 amp AC/DC on board charger ====================================== We just bought the Grizzl-E Ultimate 80A charger and are disappointed to learn our 2024 Platinum (ER battery) won't accept more...

Maverick92, I’m interested in your offer. How can I contact you? CAVUBob
