Yeti 1000x and 2 expansion batteries
I just purchased 2 expansion batteries to add to my truck camper. After testing inside, I noticed that the power supply to charge the expansion batteries is not part of the 1000x system. I have 4 100w panels on the top of the truck camper. Is there a way for the solar to charge the expansion tanks or just the yeti? Does anyone have this issue? I added Starlink to my truck so I can work from any fishing spot, but 1000x is really too small to support my workstation and internet for any length of time.
Any help or insights into how to keep the battery bank full would be greatly appreciated. It seems like right now the battery bank will fill the 1000x but not recharge at all.

Hi @Yexotay,
The Yeti Link does come with an 8mm port to allow charging to the tanks which maxes out at 120W. If you would like to charge the tanks faster than this, you will need to use the 30A MPPT charge controller linked below. This will allow up to 440W of input power.
