Is my Yeti 1400 Tank fried?
I use my Yeti a lot. It sits in the back of my truck where I keep a fridge/freezer for camping, but I also use it to charge/run tools.

Is it possible to charge a Yeti 3000 from a bike generator (an alternator powered by a bike)?
OK, first off, I COMPLETELY understand that charging a Yeti power station from a bike will take FOREVER and that it's really inefficient and all of that.

Yeti 700 - 84% bug?
Hello, so I've had my Yeti for about a week now. I love it. I wanted to extend the battery life overall so I activated the battery saver mode where it charges up to 85% max.

Link module flashes alternatively green and then red
I have a 3000X with latest firmware (1.8.8) and it is behaving a bit strangely when the external tanks are recharging it.

Inaccurate display of battery remaining percent?
Just acquired a GZ 3000X that was used very little and remained, for the most part apparently, fully charged for a number of months.

Battery Recycling
I have an old Yeti 50 and 400 that it looks like some of the cells have shorted. The 50 gives about 2 minutes of charge and the 400 isn't much better. I have cycled them a couple of times and the run time hasn't gotten any better. Is there a suggested procedure for recycling these since I believe they are lead acid.
