I’m at my sisters house trying to use her Tesla charger with my adaptor.
Button on side of truck went blue but App says charging error.
Do I have to register my truck with her charger or something?
Or can I only use this with a supercharger?

Assuming you are referring to a Level 3 DCFC adapter which then only will work on Level 3 (superchargers).

AC Level 1/2 requires different adapter. There are several on the market. I use a Tesla Tap.

Post a picture of the adapter you are using. It may not be the right type.

This adaptor will only work for DC charging. If this is what you are using, it won't work.

If the Tesla home charger (High Power Wall Connector) is old enough (1st generation) it won't charge our trucks at all. Not many of those left out there though.

Supercharger adapter works at Superchargers...

If you need an adapter for your Tesla home charger, A2Z’s Stellar adapter is very good and priced right - $108 ($99.90 with code FORDFORUM). https://a2zevshop.com/collections/charging-adapters/products/a2z-stellar-plug?ref=Typhoon

TeslaTap is the #1 adapter and the only adapter made in the USA.
The other adapters available are made in China.

The correct TeslaTap for a Ford Lightning is available at TeslaTap MINI - Lightning Version

I had a very expensive TeslaTap fail from water infiltration, just like the QC corded adapters and the cheap Chinese Hansshow adapters. I also was not impressed at all by the way TeslaTap actively marketed their 80A adapter for other vehicles with 80A onboard chargers, then turned around and started marketing a "Lightning" adapter at a nontrivial markup, with some dubious rationale about continuous current draw and heating, a little while after the first Lightning trucks shipped. it's a much better quality product than the generic Amazon junk or the Hansshow which is clearly made to look just like the TeslaTap but is much worse, but the A2Z adapter seems, to me, to be the best on the market in terms of build quality, watertightness, heat dissipation, and cost, and I prefer it to the TeslaTap at this point.

The A2Z NACS-J1772 adapter is just a Chinese adapter with their name on it.

I have an early 50 amp Tesla tap and another
brand. The Tesla tap works on most destination
chargers that aren't internally locked. The other
one is hit or miss. Doesn't work on a lot of ones
that the Tesla tap does. I have used the Ford
DCFC adapter with my Lightning and several
unmodified Bolts.

Having a little experience with having things made in China, hard to say who licensed (or copied) whom or which might be unauthorized excess production of what. Also there's the question of how much quality control you're paying for.

All that said, I have owned the A2Z, the TT, the old Quick Charge cabled adapters, the Lectron, and the Hansshow 80A adapter. The A2Z is really well made and is the only one that has yet to fail me in our Northeastern winter weather over time.

Gen 1 will work fine, Just need a TeslaTap and the settings correctly set in the Wall Connector.
