3. Yeti 1250 Warnings:
Battery Fail: Replace internal battery
Blown Fuse: Contact Goal Zero Solutions Center
Low Battery: Plug into power source immediately
Temperature Warning; Too Hot: Unplug YETI and allow it to cool down
Inverter Fail: Contact Goal Zero Solutions Center
Storage and Downtime Maintenance:
Having your YETI connected to a power source, like a solar panel or wall plug,
between adventures or while in storage keeps its battery healthy and topped
off. This prolongs battery life and will ensure your YETI is charged and ready
to go all day, every day.
If you can’t keep your YETI plugged into a power source during storage, fully-
charge your YETI every 3 months and store it in a cool, dry place. Failure to
maintain your YETI by following these steps can result in battery damage
which will void the product warranty.
Chaining your Yeti:
Looking for more power from your Yeti? You can extend the run time of your
YETI by connecting it to additional 12V, 100Ah batteries. The connector on
the back of the Yeti is an Anderson Power SB175
1. Before chaining batteries to the YETI 1250, you’ll need to purchase
the correct cables and additional batteries:
a. Yeti 1250 Battery Clamp Connector Cable (SKU #98003)
temporarily connects other 12V batteries.
b. Yeti 1250 Ring Terminal Connector Cable (SKU #98001) semi-
permanently connects other 12V batteries.
c. Connect only 100Ah, 12V lead-acid batteries (or similar, 175Ah
MAX) batteries to the YETI 1250.
2. Locate and remove the plastic cover on the back of the YETI (near the
top, center).
3. Connect the chaining cable to the additional batteries.
4. Connect the chaining cable into the Anderson Powerpole on the back
of the YETI.
When additional batteries are chained to the YETI, you will experience
increased charge times – this is a result of having to charge up the chained
batteries in addition to the YETI.
What to power from your YETI:
USB: Smartphones, MP3 Players, Digital Cameras, E-readers, Tablets, etc.
12V: Goal Zero Lights, 12V appliances, etc.
AC: Laptops, Cameras, CPAP, Display Monitors, Appliances, Fridges, etc.
How to use your YETI:
1. Press the master POWER button to turn on your YETI.
2. Press the power button located above each port you will be using. When
not using certain ports, make sure to turn them off to conserve power.
3. You’ll know the port is turned on when the green LED light on the button is
illuminated.
4. Plug in your gear for power anywhere life takes you.
5. If possible, keep your YETI plugged into a power source when not in use.
6. You can charge your YETI and charge your gear at the same time.
Best-Use Strategy:
When charging gear with your YETI, take note of the LCD Battery Display. If
you plug in devices that have a high power requirement (a large refrigerator),
the charge level of your YETI can drop very quickly and you may not get
exactly 1250Wh of power. On the flipside, if you’re recharging devices that
draw power more slowly (a small TV), you might get more than 1250Wh from
your YETI. If you’re experiencing shorter runtimes, you may want to check
the device’s power requirements, see TROUBLESHOOTING for help.
Cold Weather Usage:
Cold temperatures (below freezing) can impact the YETI’s battery capacity.
If you’ll be out living off-grid in sub-zero conditions, we recommend keeping
your YETI in an insulated cooler, connected to a power source (solar panels),
and charging your gear. The natural heat generated by the YETI contained in
an insulated cooler will keep battery capacity at its highest.
LCD Display:
You can activate the display backlight by pressing the Display button. The
built-in LCD display indicates three important things:
1. INPUT shows the amount of power (watts) going into the YETI while
charging. If charging from solar, you’ll see the watts change as you
reposition the panels into/out of the sunlight.
a. LO will be displayed if power flow is below a measureable amount.
2. OUTPUT shows the amount of power (watts) your devices are using
