Yeti 1000x external mppt charge controller
I am new to the lithium world. My 1st purchase was the yeti 1000x. I am very happy with it. Now I've gotten some off brand(Dokio 160w) solar panels. My question is, will an external mppt charge controller improve the charging time or does the integrated mppt controller all I need? I have managed 75 to 80 watts with the…

How do I connect the 30 ft HPP extension cable to my Ranger 300?
The cable plugs right in to my 3000x, but I see no way to connect the other end to the solar panel. Both connectors on the HPP cable have the same (male?) end. What am I missing?

Hi! just installed a yeti link and tank with my Yeti 1000X. Since the yeti link has it's own input for the tank, can I plug the 8mm charger to it and an Anderson from my two boulder 100's to the Yeti itself at the same time? Thanks

No power to panel
Hello there! I have a Yeti 3000 power station that I inherited with a skoolie, so I know very little about it or how everything is wired. Previous owner wired up a 12 volt panel with toggle switches, USB and 12V outlet and it was working, then just stopped. It appears that there is no power to it. It's connected to one of…

Connecting two Yeti 1000 in parallel to the Home Integration Kit
I have two Yeti 1000s, I would like to use them in parallel with the home integration kit to combine the capacity of both for backup power to my home without having to manual switch from one to the other, when the first one runs out of juice.

Goal Zero Tank Expansion Battery Hack
I have added a Victron Smart Battery Protect to the tank 12v 100ah AGM Battery. Goal Zero told me that the AGM battery in the tank could be drained to zero no problem. If you are running devices off the Yeti and the demand is there the Yeti will run the Tank and the Yeti all the way down to 0. You can set a cutoff voltage…

Plugging in an oxygenator
I am on oxygen 24/7. I have a Yeti 3000X in case the power goes out. A few nights ago the power went out at 3:30 am. Fortunately, I was awake when the power went out and plugged my oxygenator in. That got me to thinking. What if I hadn't been awake? So I thought the best thing to do would be to plug in my oxygenator into…

Chaining GZ Solar Panels
I recently purchased a Yeti 1500 with a Boulder 100 Briefcase panel, and a Yeti 200 with a Nomad 20 panel. I already own a Nomad 20 panel and a Torch 500. I expected the Boulder 100 Briefcase (B100B) panel to collect less than 100 Watts at my Midatlantic home. On a recent sunny day it peaked around 82 Watts based on the…

Used Solar Panel

I have a yeti 1500x which the panels charge it ok but I am not sure if the input volts is too much for the Yeti Link. See photo for solar panel specs. The used panel's output is about 85% (according to seller) of the wattage listed.…

Recommended battery settings for charging Tank with Victron MPPT?
I can't find any information on what would be recommended battery settings for charging a set of (6) Yeti Tanks from solar panels with a "Victron MPPT 100 | 30", i.e. the offical "30-Amp External MPPT" set offered by Goal Zero, in order to avoid over and under charging for extending battery life. I understand that the Tank…

Yeti1500 performance in sub 32F/0C temps
I thought I read somewhere that the Yeti doesnt perform well in sub freezing temperatures. It was recommended to buy a protection case. True? Can you still access power when it is in the case? Does the case have vents for the cooling fans? Alternatives to the protective case? Thanks, Brian
