New LPF Products in 1000-2000 Watt Hour Range?
Will Goal Zero be coming out with a 1000-2000 watt hour LFP unit soon? Goal Zero currently does not list LFP units in the 1000-2000 watt hour range. I will be picking up a new LFP unit in the next few weeks before heading out van camping (Spring thru late Fall). I currently own a Goal Zero 1500X (and like it) but will be…

How Should I compare/contrast the new Flex 100i and the Boulder 100i?
I want to install a solar panel on my Sprinter Van. I have a Yeti 1500X inside and the van is pre-wired to the roof for solar panels. I had planned to install a cross bar and mount a Boulder 100i but the new Flex might make my job easier. My concern is that, despite the specs looking the same, the flex may not be as…

Yeti 1000x with 2 expansion tanks
I ordered 20-Amp Charge Controller to attach to my solar to charge the expansion tanks. I assume that this is the correct setup? I can't find an 8mm to connect to the controller. Any ideas or am I trying to set something up incorrectly?

Toxic Burning Smell Coming From my Yeti 3000X
Came home today and opened the garage where my Yeti 3000X is plugged in. There was a very strong toxic burning smell. The smell was emanating from the Yeti. I unplugged the Yeti, opened my garage doors and turned a fan on to help disperse the odor. Unfortunately, the smell seeped into my house and hopefully didn’t…

Yeti 1500x To Power Cargo Trailer / Toy Hauler Conversion
I have a cargo trailer that I am converting into a toy hauler and am thinking of going with the Yeti 1500x (for now and may upgrade to the PRO 4000 later) as the power solution as it is seemingly more versatile than separate batteries/inverter/etc as I can pull the until and use as home backup generator. My questions: How…

Can you hook up two remote displays?
Wondering if you can daisy chain two of the remote displays? So I can have one in my camper, and one in the cab of my truck? Seeing as there are two RJ45 ports on the display, I thought this might be the intention for those.

What's the best setting for the AC Charge Input Limit (Low input limit setting)?
If I need to use my portable gas generator to recharge the Yeti PRO 4000, should I manually set the charge limit to something below 1800W? Is it better to switch it to a High Input limit? Thx.

Yeti 700 - 84% bug?
Hello, so I've had my Yeti for about a week now. I love it. I wanted to extend the battery life overall so I activated the battery saver mode where it charges up to 85% max. So each time I plug it in to charge, it will charge all the way to 85% but if I leave it plugged in to the wall, it eventually discharges to 84%. Is…

What adaptor is needed to connect 500X to Renogy solar?
I have just received a Yeti 500x Portable power station. I also have a Renogy 100W 12V foldable solar panel suitcase, with built in 20A charge controller. We use this for our RV Trailer with an adaptor to fit the standard plugin, but I see the 500x has a barrel type plugin. Can anyone tell me what connector adaptor I need…

Using a 3000X to power a Class C
Hi There. New owner of a Yeti 3000X. I am trying to use it to power our Class C motorhome (2023 Forest River Forester 3011DS) while we boondock. I plug the RV AC cord into the Yeti 100 outlet (using a 30A to 15A plug dongle) and make sure that the inverter is on. However the power control panel in the RV says “no service”.…

Question on extension cable and combiner cable
I have a Yeti 1000Core and a Yeti 700 (with the new battery technology--just got them both last week). I want to connect them to a Boulder 100 and Boulder 50 solar panel. This combiner cable (Goal Zero 8mm to High Power Port4X combiner cable) looks like it would work on the 1000, but not the 700. What would work with the…

Best way to store power stations in a greenhouse?
I have a Yeti 3000x power station for use at a plant nursery. I have no interior workspace to store the power station, except for a greenhouse. I am hoping to store the power bank in the greenhouse but have a few concerns. My first concern is temperature. The greenhouse is not insulated so at night can get to temperatures…

PRO 4000 low power shut-off / automatic shut-on capability
Does the PRO 4000 have this functionality? Our set-up is at a remote cabin where we do not live full time. If we have several cloudy days then solar input can't keep up and the low power shut off engages and shuts down our wifi router. On our old yeti 3000 power (and wifi) would automatically be restored once the solar…

1500X USB-C PD 60W not outputting power
I have a brand new Yeti 1500X. I've tried to charge my MacBook Pro but no power goes to the computer. Then I tried to charge my iPad Pro and got the same result--no power from the USB PD 60W port to the iPad. What am I doing wrong? Or do I have a defective 1500X?

Yeti Link update to firmware 1.8.4 LED flashes Red
I have a unique setup where I use the alternator to charge an isolated AGM battery in my Transit Van. This battery is then connected to the 6000x with the Yeti Link in Tank mode. Since the latest update, I am now having the 4 LED lights on the Yeti Link flash red. This started to happen after the firmware update to 1.8.4…

Link module flashes alternatively green and then red
I have a 3000X with latest firmware (1.8.8) and it is behaving a bit strangely when the external tanks are recharging it. When the recharging first begins the tanks (Qty 2) appear to be delivering over 700 watts to the 3000X. However, after a couple minutes, perhaps, the charging level drops to a little over 200 watts as…

Yeti Tank Batteries Draining
Hi, I have a yeti 3,000 connected to three tank batteries. Love the system, however when I leave the tanks plugged into the Yeti through the module, there seems to be some significant parasitic drain on the tanks. When not plugged into the yeti, the yeti and the tanks stay full much longer. There are no loads plugged into…

Purchased a used Yeti 150 and I only get 90vac out of theAC outlet when measured with a meter.
Unit also shows 80% power and starts charging ok with a flashing "full" and when I plug in the adapter. But if I plug anything into it the display goes dead. I tried changing out the battery which I assume was the original, and will let the new battery charge overnight, but my front panel meter also shows the new battery…

4000 Pro + Tank: Unequal discharge
I've got a 4000 pro installed with a single tank stacked in my Sprinter. I commonly see the tank capacity at 10-20% below the main unit. I would expect the two units to draw equally. Is this normal and expected behavior? When charging on shore power, the two do eventually even out. Thanks.

Inaccurate display of battery remaining percent?
Just acquired a GZ 3000X that was used very little and remained, for the most part apparently, fully charged for a number of months. Now, when I start applying a load to power some things I notice that the unit only very, very slowly starts to decrement the display number for battery % remaining. At the moment the unit…

Charging Goal Zero 500X from 7 pin trailer plug
I've got a 2021 Tacoma with a camper in the bed. I use a Yeti 500X for power which I usually charge with solar. This works great until the clouds roll in for a few days. I spliced together a 7 way blade to 2 pin trailer plug with a 10 foot 14AWG to 8 mm port wire (see picture). I connected the set up from the tow plug…
