Firmware showing as “up-to-date” when newer versions available?
Thinking it might be a long shot, but has anyone had issues with the latest firmware update not showing as available on the goal zero app? The firmware for our 3000x is showing as 1.7.6 and “up-to-date” but there have been at least two released updates since 1.7.6 (so this is clearly not correct). We really want to update…

Does the Module ever have to be charged or does it get charged by the direct link to the Yeti? Can energy flow back to the Lithium battery of the…

It claimed in manual that it would charge an iphone 3 times; I only got 2 charges and then it was just dead weight in my pack. First night, I plug it in and then unplugged it in the AM. The second night I ran some apps in offline mode(photos,…

GZ 1500x issue - no solar input
Hiya, Our 1500x is not acknowledging solar input. Via multimeter, over 20 volts are coming in but nothing registers as input and no charge occurs. The GZ does accept AC charge. I have done multiple resets but no change occurs. Wiggling the input wire doesn’t change anything and I don’t know what else to do. Please help.

Yeti 500x and Sherpa solar panel
Hello, I just bought a Yeti 500x. We have an older (8yo?) Sherpa 50 pack that came with a small solar panel. When I plug it in to the Yeti 500x, the Input shows up as 0 W. I took a voltmeter to the contacts of the panel, and it says that it is about 18 Volts. While it is on the small side, I presumed that it could at least…

Can I use a Nomad 200 with Yeti 500x?
If so, how, and what do I need to connect and make sure I don’t overcharge the Yeti 500x? The specs for 500x says max input of 180 watts but also shows charging time for a Boulder 200 at 3-4.5 hours. So can I use the Nomad 200 to charge the Yeti 500x and if so, how? Thx

How to ground Yeti 1500x to truck chassis?
I have seen diagrams on grounding the Yeti 1500x through the foot of the power station with # 8 AWG wire to the vehicle frame. The drawing says use "a" #8 AWG wire but the diagram shows two #8 AWG wires connecting to the 1500x . Which is correct. If it's two #8 wires why not just use one #2 AWG wire? Thanks

Hi all, Sorry to keep asking questions... So I connected my Nomad and my Sherpas together and put my Nomad in a window. Is it safe to just leave them there? The Sherpas are already charged. It would be kinda embarrassing if the house burned down while I was at work. Just noticed something, the Sherpa the Nomad is plugged…
