Charging Your YETI
Charging from the Wall
Using the included AC Wall Charger, plug your YETI into any wall outlet. You will know
the Yeti is charging when the blue LED light next to the INPUT port turns on, and
battery segments in the BATTERY DISPLAY are blinking. The YETI is fully charged
when all battery segments stop blinking and remain solid. The YETI should recharge
from the wall in about 5 hours.
Charging from your Ca
r
To charge your YETI from a car or 12V source, you will need to purchase an
8.0 mm to 12V charger
from GOALZERO.com. Call our Customer Solutions
Center at 1-888-794-6250 for help identifying the charger.
CHARGE ME NOW
: Before using or storing, plug your YETI into the wall until it is
fully charged. If at any point you hear a beeping from your YETI, plug it into a power
source, like an AC outlet or a solar panel, as soon as possible. This built-in warning
indicator is to help prevent battery damage when the charge gets low. For more tips
and tricks on keeping your battery healthy, see the BATTERY 101 section.
LCD Battery Display
: The LCD Battery Display indicates the charge level of your
YETI. There are 5 segments to the battery, approximating 20% - 40% - 60% - 80%
-100% capacity. As you use your YETI, segments will disappear from the display,
indicating the remaining charge. When charging your YETI you will notice a battery
segment blinking at a 1 second interval. This indicates the current charge status.
Once your YETI is fully charged, all battery segments will be lit and remain solid.
Charging from Solar
The YETIs charging port is located on the top-left corner of the faceplate and
has a blue ring around it. This 8mm port is designed to work with Goal Zero
solar panels and is capable of taking in 120W of solar.
1. Place your solar panel where it will get as much direct sunlight as
possible. See the graphic in the SOLAR 101 section for help.
2. Insert the blue-ringed plug form the panel into the INPUT port on the
front of the YETI. You will know the YETI is charging when the blue LED
light next to the INPUT port lights up, and the battery segments in the
LCD BATTERY DISPLAY are blinking. The YETI is fully charged when all
battery segments stop blinking and remain solid.
3. Some GOAL ZERO panels are chainable to provide more power to your
YETI and reduce solar charge times. The INPUT port is capable of taking
in 120W of solar.
When connecting older versions of the NOMAD and BOULDER Solar Panels, use
the Legacy-Nomad Adapter Cable or the 8.0mm to 8.0mm Adapter Cable to
connect to the YETI.
1. The AC wall charger comes in two
pieces. Connect the two pieces by
plugging the cable into the box
