Low battery AC inverter shutdown
Hi, I use my Yeti 1250 to power a small off grid refrigerator. Sometimes when returning to the cabin, I find the AC inverter has shut off. Makes sense that a few cloudy days might not provide enough power, but I’m wondering what battery level or voltage the Yeti 1250 is configured at to shut down the AC inverter when the…

Chaining a new 50W Boulder panel to three 30W (older) Boulder Solar Panels
Tech support at Goal Zero recommends purchasing the 4X connector to chain these panels together. Does this make sense to the community? Previously I had 3 30W Boulders chained together in series. Is the 4X connector necessary? Can't I run the 3 Boulder 30W's together then the 50W then the connection to the battery? 4X 8MM…

1400 always shows 100% charge
My 1400 recently started having a display problem. The display always shows it's 100% charged, when I know that's not true. I've tried a soft reset, and updated the firmware. Example: With no input, and a lamp plugged in, I can see that the Watt Hours output since the last reset is 780 watt hours, it shows 7.8 hours in…

Charging USB PD devices on Yeti X
Hi. I have a Yeti 1500X. Works great. I also have some USB PD battery banks (Goal Zero, Anker, ...). I find that they charge great on the 18W USBC output but not on the high-power 60W output. This is the classic USB PD negotiation problem, since I have to use the in/out port on both devices. I want the Yeti 60W port to be…

How important is battery cycling
If I'm looking at the 6000x + 4 tank kit for emergency home backup how important it s it to occasionally drain and recharge the tanks? I can imagine using the 6000x in various ways to cycle the battery but if I don't have a power interruption for a long period of time what's the best way to keep the tank batteries healthy?

Yeti 200X charged on car 12v at 10A
Hi I've charged my Yeti 200X using the car accessory on 12v at 10A mode instead of 5A. So far it worked well getting 120W estimated charge rate like the 120w wall charger. Am I lucky it didn't fried the unit yet or did it self limit power being pumped by itself ? thanks

Yeti 1000 drains when outputs are on but nothing connected.
I have Yeti 1000 Lithium, and I noticed when I leave the outputs (12V, 120V, USB) turned on with nothing actually connected, the battery still drains rather quickly. I didn't record the specific rate but it's about 10% per day. Is that normal? I haven't taken the time to determine which output specifically. I generally…

Can I use more watts of input power than my device is rated for?
Yes! As long as the input source is within the acceptable Voltage range, all Goal Zero Power Stations, Power Banks, and Lights will only use the watts they need. This means you can connect a Boulder 100 to the 8mm input port of a Sherpa 100AC and the Sherpa will only take in up to its max input of 50W. You could also…

Yeti 200x - first charge
Hi, I just bought a Yeti 200x. According to the guidelines the display should show 100 when fully charged. I left the battery charging for several hours (wall plug charging) and for the last 2 hours it is showing 99. Is it ok, or might this mean the battery is not really new?Should I return it to the dealer? Thank you.

To chain two or three Boulder 50 Solar Panels together, plug the blue ringed 8mm connector from one panel into the input connector or input port of the next panel, using the charging cable from the final panel to connect to your Goal Zero Yeti or Sherpa. If you’re chaining more than three Boulder 50 Solar Panels together,…
