Verdict

The Goal Zero Yeti has got relatively a lot of power inside, but there is always times it could be nice to have more. Specially when using this as a emergency power at the house. The possibility to expand it with up to four extra battery units makes this a even better buy. You have then got the portability and the possibility to make this a rather large power system at the house.

Solar

Since this product has got a integrated MPPT unit, you should have some use for the solar part of this. Lots of different solar panels to choose from, both portable and none-portable. Also possible to use panels from other brands as long as it doesn’t output more power than the Yeti supports.
