1. INPUT shows the amount of power (watts) going into the Goal Zero Yeti while
charging. If charging from solar, you’ll see the watts change as you reposition the panels
into/out of the sunlight.
2. OUTPUT shows the amount of power (watts) your devices are using while plugged
into the Goal Zero Yeti.
3. TIME TO EMPTY/FULL shows the amount of time before your Goal Zero Yeti is
completely charged or empty, depending on if the net amount of power going into the
Goal Zero Yeti is positive or negative.
4. BATTERY LEVEL shows 5 segments, approximating 20% - 40% - 60% - 80%
-100% capacity. As you use your Goal Zero Yeti, segments will disappear from the
display, indicating the remaining charge. When charging your Goal Zero Yeti you will
notice a battery segment blinking. This indicates the current charge status. Once your
Goal Zero Yeti is fully charged, all battery segments will be lit and remain solid. As long
as there is more power going into the Goal Zero Yeti than is being pulled from the output
ports, the display will also indicate the ttime until fully charged. This is an estimated time
based on the power input and output numbers at that time; it will adjust to a shorter or
longer time if the charge or discharge rates fluctuate. Note that when you first plug in a

Yeti in an insulated cooler, connected to a power source (solar panels), and charging your
gear. The natural heat generated by the Goal Zero Yeti contained in an insulated cooler
will keep battery capacity at its highest. The Yeti will not allow charging below freezing
for safety reasons. The unit will warn show a warning on the LCD as you approach
this temperature
