1500X MPPT board replacement
Does anyone know where I can get a MPPT board for a 1500X? I got my system used at an REI garage sale, and since you can't really test solar in a store, I didn't know that didn't work till I got it home. Since it was used, it isn't covered by warranty. One of the AC jacks was bad also. I have already tried doing multiple…

Solar quit charging
I have a new to me open box Yeti 1500X and am checking it out with my new portable Dometic CFX3 55 Liter fridge. The 110 VAC works consistently for charging but the new Renogy Flexible 100W panel did not. When I first plugged the panel in to the input Anderson PowerPole, it worked great for the first few minutes. Then it…

Goal Zero Yeti 3000x
Hello, I want to connect my Goal Zero Yeti 3000x to some solar panels, I see that the ones Yeti sells are more for travel and are more expensive than other brands. I was looking into connecting 2 Renogy 200 watt panels From what I read the yeti is able to support up to 600 watts of input, but will only accept 50v and up to…

Multiple Yetis?
I have a Yeti 1500X. I'm considering a second Yeti X to put in a different room. Is there a simple way to connect them to a) distribute power or to b) charge from one to the other and without using the tank expansion or home integration kits? It's looks like in another post, the HPP cable was ruled out for having…

What to do when an appliance asks for ground.
So I picked up a dual burner cooktop. It's 120 volt 60 HZ 1800 w 15 amp burner. I was reading the instructions before wanting to use it today and it said that it needs ground. I looked at the Goal Zero 3000x and the ground port is just plastic. So how do people use a Goal Zero with a product that needs ground? Is there a…

Was gifted two power stations ---
There was a fella who didn't want his power stations anymore, I'm not sure 100% why but he kind of alluded to they just didn't fit his lifestyle anymore. So he handed over to me a 3000x and a 1500x. The 3000x has a weird burnt smell coming out of the top and the 1500x has a slight weird burnt smell coming out of the top.…

Charging one Yeti from Another
I have two Yetis: a 3000x and and a 6000x. The 6000X is connected to my home integration kit. Is it OK to use an HPP cable to connect the output of the 3000x to the input of the 6000x in order to supplement its power? I know I can physically do it but I want to know if that would put either unit at risk.

Yeti400 Lithium can't power my laptop?!
I bought a Lithium400 primarily to power my Alienware 17" R3 laptop and the laptop is powered with a 240w ac adapter. I plug this into the Yeti400 Lithium and it goes right into overload. This thing is supposed to have 1200 watts of surge power, which should cover any 'surge' but since the AC Adapter is 240w, I can't see…

Putting my yeti 6000x in a weather proof enclosure, bad idea?
I have a yeti 6000x that I need to have outside near the solar panels. It will be on a covered porch so it would not get too wet leaving it out. But I want to put it in a weatherproof container. I would prefer a container not much bigger than the yeti. Do I need to worry about air circulation? If so, would drilling a few…

Battery problem?
I have a Yeti 1000 purchased from Costco in 2018. It hasn't been used much and the SOC rarely gets below 50%, though a couple of times it has been completely discharged. Now when recharging the SOC doesn't get above 91%. Is this expected, or a problem with the battery? Thanks, Frank Smith
