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…

Yeti Link Vehicle Integration kit with smart alternator
I have a 2021 Chevy Colorado Diesel, apparently this vehicle has a "smart" alternator. I installed the vehicle integration kit to charge my Yeti 1000X, but I don't get consistent charging as the alternator only engages when needed to charge the vehicle battery. Has anyone dealt with this or know of a work around? TIA

combine HPP outputs at fuse block?
I have a Yeti 6000x and am using it to power devices in my van; when I attempt to start an Espar gas heater, the 12 volt circuit breaker trips. This doesn't always happen, my thought is that perhaps initial current demand for the heater glow plug is sometimes too much for the GZ and the circuit trips. Would running both…

MPPT Solar Charging Optimization Module Questions

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.

Improvement idea for lanterns
Could we get a female 1/4"-20 on the bottom of some of your lanterns? I find that there are times when it's simply not possible to hang a lantern, while at the same time I usually pack a selfie stick with tripod base, or a regular tripod in my car, and it would be awesome if I could just screw a lantern atop one of those…

Does anyone know who could help with a whole house backup

My Tank 4000 and Yeti 4000 show different SoC in the App. Is my Tank broken?
TL;DR There is likely nothing wrong with your Tank or Yeti.

Connecting a power supply and charging the Yeti+Tank to 100% and…

DC/AC Inverter Efficiency
I assume that the power rating for a Yeti 1000 Core is for DC usage only. When converting from DC to AC, energy is consumed (obviously). What is the Yeti's inverter's efficiency?

Will Yeti completely drain expansion tank battery to charge itself?
I have a Yeti 3000 with 2 tank expansion batteries. I'm wondering what happens if I have a heater running overnight in my van and the Yeti drains the tanks to keep itself charged (I think that's what it does?). If it's unattended (I'm asleep), will it empty them completely and so impair the life of the tank batteries or…

But it only holds that rate for about one minute. Then for no apparent reason, the charging rate sits back down to about 50w. I can turn off…
