Replace that charge station pro with a 100 Amp sub panel, and throw in two Tesla or other chargers, should be all set.
Charger for ford and Tesla
Thanks for adding me to the group. I received my lightning in November and picking up my wife’s Tesla on Friday. I have the pro charger installed in my house and was thinking I would be able to charge the Tesla with it. Sounds like this is not the case. Does anyone now what charger I could buy that would do both? I have a 100 amp dedicated breaker for whichever one I will need.

It uses a CCS plug, not a J1772 plug. I haven't tested, but I believe the CCS to Tesla adapters utilize the DC contacts instead of the AC contacts. If you dig through threads here, I believe someone got a J1772 extension and removed a bit of plastic so it would plug into the CCS plug, sort of solving the issue.Wait the FCSP can't charge a Tesla even with the Tesla adapter on the J1772 FCSP plug?
I think Lyric should be fine with CCS adapter, as it should have a CCS plug, it will just use the J1772 portion.
The other advantage to the Tesla Wall Connecter and then TeslaTap adapter would be the ability to take it with you, and use at Tesla Destination chargers (NOT Superchargers). The TeslaTap mini runs about $300 but is rated for the full 80 amps, and would also work on future non-tesla EV's. I don't think the Lectron adapters are rated at 80 Amps.Yes, was looking at that one, but, it's the wife Tesla. She didn't want to have to put the adapter on every time while charging her car. LOL
