Quiet, portable power for base camps, cabins and unexpected outages. The Goal Zero Yeti 400 Solar Generator allows you to live life off the grid, camp in luxury, or power through an outage without the noise and fumes of traditional back-up generators. Think of the Yeti 400 as a portable wall outlet. Power laptops, lights, and phones anywhere you need them. The convenient pop-up handle makes it easy to carry and take it along for the ride. The Yeti 400 can be charged from the wall, car or the sun using a Goal Zero solar panel.
Traveling with the Yeti 400 wont be an issue at all. Although it is a bit heavy, the Yeti 400 contains an advanced, sealed lead-acid battery that is completely safe to bring along on your flight. Bring along your user manual to show the type of battery inside.
Cold temperatures (below freezing) can impact Yeti 400's battery capacity. If you'll be living off-grid in sub-zero conditions, we recommend keeping your Yeti 400 in an insulated cooler, and connected to a power source (solar panels). The natural heat generated by the Yeti 400 contained in an insulated cooler will keep battery capacity at its highest.Having your Yeti 400 connected to a power source, like a solar panel or wall outlet, between adventures or while in storage keeps its battery healthy and topped off. This prolongs battery life and will ensure your Yeti 400 is charged and ready to go all day, every day. If you can't keep your Yeti 400 plugged into a power source during storage, fully charge your Yeti 400 every 3 months and store it in a cool, dry place. Failure to maintain your Yeti 400 by following these steps can result in battery damage which will void the product warranty.
