Boulder 30W cable problem
I have had three 30W Boulder solar panels chained together on a small shed to charge Yeti batteries. Energy production has declined and I found a mouse "nest" tucked inside one of the panels (on the back side of it) and a mouse has chewed through the cable that comes with the 30W Boulder solar panel. Goal Zero support staff say that those cables cannot be replaced--they came with the Boulder 30W kits but they don't make replacement cables. This seems short sighted considering this is a renewable resource and a company that produces them. I am hoping that an electrician friend can patch it. I tried and it did work. It is a coaxial type cable.
Any ideas on this? Thanks.

The cable attached to the Boulder 30 is an 8mm cable. They can be replaced with either the 15ft or 30ft 8mm extension. In order for it to work with the Boulder 30 you will need to trim the female end so it can fit into the Boulder 30. There are example photos attached and the links to the 8mm cables are below.

I purchased a 4X 8MM Combiner to High Power Port Connector. I need to connect it to a Yeti. Will the High Power Port to 8MM Connector work with the 4X 8MM Combiner to make that connection?
