Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Piece of Equipment - First Impression This was purchased as a field power source for a mobile amateur VHF|UHF radio with a maximum 50 watt transmit power. I paired it with a Nomad 100 solar panel. Only had it for a few weeks and used it for one public service event. It worked very well with an Anderson PowerPole adapter in the 12V DC socket. I've also used it at home to run some small appliances. With the solar panels the unit stayed fully charged throughout the public service event. At home, I've charged theYeti 500 with one Nomad 100 solar panel from 65% to 100% in about 3.5 hours - that's only 55-65% efficiency on the Nomad 100 panel (Full Sun). Not great performance by the panel, but good enough for my use case. This review is a first impression based on limited experience -- as the summer go on, we'll use it more and that should give us a better baseline for a review.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for a quick home backup when you live in TX We lose power at my house at least once a year, usually for 3 to 4 days. Now that I work from home, this has become a far bigger issue. Picked this unit up at REI and love it. Just the right size to power my fiber router and my laptop and external screen, as well as keep my phone charged. I picked up the Boulder 100 briefcase unit and it's the perfect combo to keep me going will the utility does it's annual repair.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quality product Love the fast charging. Everything works as it should. Only downside is the location of the plug and on/off switch. Plug should be on the side and power switch on the front. Also the cover flap is annoying. There has to be a better way to cover outlets

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Power Plus! We travel full time to remote places all over North American in our 17' camp trailer. Having a GZ Yeti 500 is essential to our existence. We use it to grind coffee, recharge laptops, iPads, cameras and phones, provide additional lighting and to power the fan in our compost toilet. It also powers our cell signal booster and recharges power tool batteries. We recharge our new Yeti with a Boulder 100 panel. Nine years of living off-grid has taught us to invest in the best gear. GZ is the best for reliable solar equipment!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A fantastic device. I've used this a few times now and it works like a dream. I love the comfort I have knowing that, combined with my Nomad 100 solar panel, this Yeti 500 will ensure I never have to worry about a dead phone or laptop no matter where out in the boondocks I travel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Everything and More! We purchased the Yeti 500 a few months ago and instantly knew it was exactly what we needed. Extended trips camping in a Tacoma requires a power resupply, however a complete solar unit was overkill for our needs and small chargers weren't enough. The Yeti 500 completely fits our needs and goes beyond our expectations. It quickly recharges from a wall outlet and provides us enough power for roughly five days with steady use. The ability charge multiple items at once, while blowing up the kids' air mattress, keeps us constantly ready for whatever may come our way. It's rugged design takes the bumps and bruises with ease. Thank you Goal Zero for an outstanding product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from SMALL BUT MIGHTY!! Received free gift from Influenster! Well this couldn’t have come at a better time! We just finished building our shed on the side of the house and we were going to run an extension cord allllll the way around the house to power anything inside. Now, we don’t have to! Not only can we use it at home and around the house, but we have tried 2 different brands of portable power stations around the same price and they wouldn’t power ANYTHING. We were able to charge this from 90%-100% in about 8 minutes. So even if you are out dry camping and run out of juice you can charge it in town somewhere if needed. Love the lighted display and the fact that there are covers to protect all the important things on the front and back! I also had this in the shed and was comfortable enough to bring it right inside. It’s a tiny little thing! Smaller than a standard single lunch box. I am amazed that this will power a smoker for as long as it does I can’t wait to make the best meals while camping!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Yeti 500 The Yeti 500 portable power station is incredibly handy to have at home. I really wish I had it during the snowstorm a few years back. I'm thrilled to have been given the chance to test it out. When I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised by how compact yet powerful the power station is. It takes approximately 1.5 hours to charge it fully. The best part is, there are multiple ways to recharge it - through solar power, the car, or the wall. I'm definitely taking it with me to the beach or on my next camping trip.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Two Yetis are better than one I bought a Yeti 200 about three years ago. The purpose was to power a Dometic 28 l portable refrigerator. It has been great, but I wanted more capacity. I decided that a Yeti 500 would be a good compliment. That way I could charge one battery in my tent with a solar panel outside while using the other battery in the car with the refrigerator, locked up and safe from bears. I like the design of the Yeti series, and packaging for shipment is robust. The Yeti 500 arrived in about two weeks to Canada.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Power Station! I bought this about a month ago and used it on a cross country trip for my Snowmaster refrigerator. It worked great. I especially love the Bluetooth connection to the Yeti 500 from the phone app. I could check charge levels and turn on/off ports as needed directly from the app.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Doesn't work as planned Got the Yeti500 about 4 weeks ago- all the reasons I bought this for has issues, I cannot charge unit on my trucks 120v outlet then I find out that the trucks invertor does not charge unit I wish that would have been on website before I bought this had to get lucky and get someone on the phone to tell me that after they researched - have to use a cig cord 12v to charge. Since I cannot use this in my truck as planned so I am going to try and run a fan in dog trailer but now the issue is trying to get 12v power to the fan- so I have been calling and sitting on hold opting to get call back- so far no call back- I have emailed from website for help no reply- I just want to know how to get power to the 12v fan- do I get a generic cig cord then cut to get the wires to attach to fan?? where do I get a 6mm output? I am sure someone at Goal zero knows these answers- if not then I see no need for having unit

Rated 5 out of 5 by from As always, reliable and a workhorse Went on a week long trip over landing and mountain biking. I used the yeti 500 to charge my drone, cameras and bike computer. Used solar to charge it back up. I like the new on off switch in th back of unit and the splash covers. Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It has changed my work life! I have paired this with a Crockpot lunch reheater and changed my work life! Now, I have reliable power (independent of my truck power) that has allowed me to eat hot lunch when out on the road! Its super easy to just grab a can of soup/ ravioli/ chili, last night's leftovers, or previously cooked and frozen pulled pork... throw it in the lunch box... throw it in the reheater about an hour before lunch and BOOM, HOT LUNCH! The 500W has a lot of capacity for how I'm using it and I typically charge it once a week!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from New LFP Battery sold me I already had a GoalZero 3000 and a bolder briefcase solar panel which have worked great for the last several years. I use them camping and for our famous "Rolling Blackouts," but when I saw the specs on the newer versions with the LPF batteries, same battery in my Tesla, this was a game changer for me. Connection to WIFI was fast and simple and the app is so handy. I like the new display better, I only wish it was at a 45 degree angle like the Pro 4000, which I also bought. So far it runs our Dometic Refrigerator full time with 100 watt solar panel. Flawless performance so far, quick delivery, a GoalZero standard, and I give it five stars. I don't like the flap over the controls, but can live with it.,

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worked for less than 24 hours I am a videographer that uses mobile internet and a switch for live broadcasting and I thought this was a great option. The only functionality issue (easily overcome with a powerstrip) is that the AC inputs are pretty close together so if you have plugs that are the box style they won't fit next to each other. The main reason for my negative review is that the product didn't even last 24 hours before it turned into a brick. I tested it the night I bought it, charged it up and loaded it into my car and when I went to set everything up it wouldn't turn on at all. No LEDs, no screen, no noise, nothing. I tried the reset option per the manual with no luck. Then I took it home and tried to plug the AC charger in and it lit up for a second and that's all she wrote. I'll be returning this and trying another one hoping that it's a fluke but I count on this for work and can't have a product I don't trust.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Truly portable and powerful Just got back from a family vacation. Everyone else was excited that we were going to be "off-the-grid", but I was very nervous because of medical equipment I need to use. The Yeti 500 made it possible to relax and have my needs met--THANKS
