Yeti 1000X minimum Input
Is there a minimum input for the 8mm Port? If I connect my panels (Boulder 100BC and/or Nomad 50) my 1000X only starts charging at 25 wats and above! Sometimes just the blue light is solid an I connect the panels to my Sherpa100AC it says 15-20 watts. Back in my 1000X nothing happens! That‘s pretty bad!

Does the Lighthouse 600 have over discharge protection for the batteries? I recently purchased one and when it arrived it was completely dead, some one switched it on. I like to run my lithium batteries on an 80-20 cycle as much as possible for longevity. Has the battery been damaged due to being flattened? Thank you, Drake
