What is required to hook up a 660w solar array to a 1500x?
My measured Voltage output from the panels with cloud coverage is 131v which is too much for the 1500x (50v) max. So, is it recommended that I use a specific charge controller or wire in parallel instead of series?

The screen on my Yeti 1000 Core keeps turning itself on a long with the USB ports?! I turn it off and minutes later it turns back on?!

Home Backup automatic failover?
Maybe I'm not searching the right thing but I can't seem to find out whether a backup battery like the Yeti can be set up to take over automatically when grid power fails. Looks like the HIK that comes with the Home Backup kits is a manual. Does anyone have experience with this or know a reason it may be not feasible?…

Can a Yeti 1500X run a gas furnace (fan) with a backup panel?
If I buy a backup sub panel, can my Yeti 1500X power the furnace if the only electric power it uses is the fan? The heat source is gas. It seems logical but I don’t want to buy the backup kit if this won’t work. Thanks.

Yeti 500X
I have a small Yeti 500X that I keep charged year round in my barn work shop. I live in New Hampshire so it gets cold in the winter. The battery is probably four years old and no longer holds a charge. Is this because of temperature changes, or do they only last this long ? I rarely actually use it. Thanks.

Is it normal for the connector cable to heat up with high input on days with heat (30 C). i
Is it normal for the connector cable to heat up on hot days (35 C) with high input reading? The cable has deformed and my yeti 400 is not being powered. Before ordering a new cable I would like some assessment from experienced yeti owners. The yeti 400 is four years old but was not operational for 20 months. Thanks
