API / Smart Home Integration
I just purchased a Yeti Pro 4000 and was surprised that I was not able to connect it to Home Assistant like I can with Yeti 3000X. It would seem that the API on the Pro 4000 is different than the 3000X, or it has been removed altogether. I can only reach a root page that states "Goal Zero Yeti 6G." If the Pro 4000 has an…

Yeti 700 Charging Issue
A few days ago, I took delivery of a Yeti 700. I charged it overnight, via a wall outlet, to 100%. The following day, I noticed it had dropped to 96% while still plugged in. The unit had nothing plugged into it to draw any current. I contacted tech support and was told to reset the unit, discharge the battery then…

GZ 1500 AC port cycles on and off
I just got a Yeti 1500 as part of a van build out and am having difficulty getting the AC ports to work. They are constantly cycling on and off.

USB C PD output doesn't work with "Custom" charge profile
The USB C PD output on my 1500x would cease to work intermittently. So I read on the forum here that rebooting could fix that. It did. But I subsequently noticed that the USB C PD port would turn off when I used a "custom" charge profile. (The charge profile reverts to "Performance" when the unit is rebooted.) Why can I…

Battery Charge Percentage and Stored Energy don't match
I have a Goal Zero 1500X. It is updated to the latest firmware (1.8.9). When I look at the app, the charge percentage (%) and charge remaining (Wh) values don't seem to match. I am currently seeing 76% state of charge, but only 990/1500Wh (66%). Why does this happen and is there a way to make it accurate?

My unit just clipped out instantly with normal loading onit. The alternator auto unit still said bank full but all other lights are out. None of the normal resets work including disconnecting the battery and power. Anybody have any ideas or know a real person who can fix it instead of a 17 year old girl in customer service.

Battery reliability for 3000X and tanks?
I am considering installing a home backup system using a 3000X with a couple of tanks and possibly solar panels. My question concerns the battery life of the 3000 x and the tanks.

Yeti 300 with Nomad 50
Hello! We're using a Nomad 50 to charge the new Yeti 300. In constant bright sun the best we're able to get is about 20 watts from the panel. That seems really low even with lower efficiency expectations. Let's assume the panel is not the problem - is there something we should be doing on the Yeti 300 to troubleshoot for a…

Strange smell 500x
Hello My unit has quite strange smell - since the unboxing. I thought it’s going to go away over time - but after many uses, it’s still little bit stinky. It’s hard to define exactly, but it’s similar to maybe sulfur (no as stronh though). Did You experience the same? Is it normal?

Yeti 3000X seems dead, screen flashes when "charging" from USB
We bought a van that came with a Yeti 3000X. It worked well for a few weeks and powered an overnight trip. When we came home it sat for a bit under trees so the battery slowly dropped to about 20%. We realized we needed to charge it so ordered the 600W AC charger. By the time that arrived and I plugged it in, it was at 4%…

Is this normal? I have the 1500X installed in my trailer, and have a DC to DC charger plugged into the barrel connector under the 'lid'. No power is being supplied to it (It is powered through the 7 pin connector, and it is not plugged in). If I also plug in the AC adapter that came with it in the front barrel connector, I…

1500X Firmware Update not completing - breaks Yeti
I initiated a firmware update using the iPhone app. According to the app, the Yeti has been updated to version 1.8.9. Seems odd, as I believe the latest version is 1.8.8. On the Yeti itself, it keeps flashing "upd", as if the firmware was not applied. I've followed the steps…
