Yeti 1500x not charging off solar
I recently got a yeti 1500x and installed 4 1500v 16 amp panels on my car. The panels are pushing power all the way to the plug for the battery but when plugged in no incoming wattage is shown. The blue light comes on as if it was charging but nothing more than that.

Charging minimal wattage
Does the 4000 Pro charges from the first incoming watt? I use a 1000x and it needs at minimum 20 watts to start charging. If the weather is overcast, the panel gives about 15 or 18 watts. The 1000x don't take any charge and during the day about 200 Wh not charged and so 200 Wh are lost.
