Overloaded
I have the 3000x. I have been running a sump pump that feeds my greenhouse from a nearby creek. It has been working fine for two weeks now. The sun has been keeping battery well charged. I just went to check on the greenhouse and the a/c button is red and lcd screen reads Overloaded. Is it due to heat in greenhouse? Thank…

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…

I'm a huge fan and long time supporter of multiple GoalZero devices that I routinely use camping and overlanding. I have an FJ80 Land Cruiser that has an onboard inverter with a secondary battery to help power devices while offgrid. While I've used both by Boulder 200 and Yeti 500X to supplement power individually, I've…

Another Vehicle Integration Q
I have a 3000x arriving this weekend and I plan to use it in a Sprinter van. I see there are two high power output ports. One under the lid and one on the face of the unit. They are both rated at 30 amps. Can these be safely connected in parallel with a terminal block to send 60 amps to a fuse block? I know it's possible…

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.

When I first plugged the panel in to the input Anderson PowerPole, it worked great for the first few minutes. Then it…

Limits / guidelines on cable length -- solar panels
I currently have the standard 4-way splitter and a 35' cable to bring power from my 3 Boulder 200's. Chasing the winter sun, it appears as if moving the panels onto some dormant raised beds further from the house would be necessary, and the 35' cable likely won't quite cut it (my Yeti is in a climate controlled cellar and…
