Solar Input Disables Other 12V Inputs - Expected Behavior?
Something I just noticed, and I don't know if this is a limitation of the Goal Zero, or if there is something wrong with my unit. When my solar panels are plugged in, even if they are making BARELY any wattage at the end of the day, the 12V inlet from the 120V power brick seems to be disabled. The moment I disconnect the…

Firmware showing as “up-to-date” when newer versions available?
Thinking it might be a long shot, but has anyone had issues with the latest firmware update not showing as available on the goal zero app? The firmware for our 3000x is showing as 1.7.6 and “up-to-date” but there have been at least two released updates since 1.7.6 (so this is clearly not correct). We really want to update…

Why was Yeti400 discontinued -- should I get replacement battery/solar panel?

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…
