Those CCS adaptors are probably the DC fast charger ones, so doubt they'd work anyway. I don't think there is a current way. Big reason many are going with Tesla chargers with J1772 adaptor, or non-Ford plain J1772 and adding Tesla adapter when needed.
Is anybody charging other vehicles with their Charge Station Pro?
I have a Charge Station Pro on the way to be installed soon. I have a Tesla Model 3 that I want to charge with my charger, but so far it looks like there's no direct path from the Ford (CCS) to Tesla (J1772). Some quick research has found some suuuuper expensive adapters - Almost more expensive than just getting a second charger installed! I was wondering if anybody is charging non-Fords with their Charge Stations and if so, how?

So, DC fast charging it provided by direct current through the bottom part of the CCS connector. (take a look at a diagram). The top part of CCS is basically a J1772 plug which is for slow level 1 or 2 AC charging.Can you tell me why it wouldn't work? There's obviously a lot I don't know about charging standards.
Those CCS to Tesla adapters are basically to facilitate DC level 3 fast charging. You are looking for AC level 2 charging coming from the J1772 piece.
Those adapters are for dc. Won't work for ac. Others have suggested using the pro power on board high amp outlet to charge Tesla while plugged into ford charge station pro.Still looking for a way to charge my Tesla with the FCSP. I contacted Ford and they don't have an answer for me for an adapter. I'm curious if the current available CCS-tesla adapters (or to J1772) work, as all advertise for L3 charging. Has anyone been successful?
I admire the efforts, but that adaptor is for DC charging, so not understanding why folks are trying it for AC charging? Am I missing something?My ford charge station pro didn’t work to charge my model x using the CCS adapter. I also have not been able to use it to charge a ford veichle yet either(lightning didn’t arrive yet).
