Using your YETI

What to power from your YETI:
USB: Smartphones, MP3 Players, Digital Cameras, E-readers, Tablets, etc.
12V: Goal Zero Lights, Car adapters, etc.
AC: Laptops, Cameras, CPAP, Display Monitors, etc.
How to use your YETI:
1. Press the power button located above each port you will be using.
2. You'll know the port is turned on when the green LED light on the button is
illuminated.
3. Plug in your gear for power anywhere life takes you.
4. Keep your YETI plugged into a power source when not in use.

Best-Use Strategy:

When recharging gear with your YETI, take note of the LCD Battery Display.
If you plug in devices that have a high power requirement (a state-of-the-art
gaming laptop), the charge level of your YETI can drop very quickly and you may
not get exactly 150Wh of power. On the flipside, if you're recharging devices
that draw power more slowly (a tablet), you will get closer to 150Wh from
your YETI. If you're experiencing shorter runtimes, you may want to check the
device's power requirements, see TROUBLESHOOTING section for help.

Cold Weather Usage:

Cold temperatures (below freezing) can impact the YETI's battery capacity.
If you'll be living off-grid in sub-zero conditions, we recommend keeping your
YETI in an insulated cooler, and connected to a power source (solar panels). The
natural heat generated by the YETI contained in an insulated cooler will keep
battery capacity at its highest.

Storage and Downtime Maintenance:

Having your YETI 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 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.
