Hey, with 5.6k Views, I think you should make more videos. I would also like to see an update.

Pretty cool setup. At this point I would just get the Yeti 1500X though

Just replace with PECRON E1500 PRO PORTABLE POWER STATION looks easier and smaller and better inverter.

Camped there a few times with my horse on a two day ride. Back then they didn't have a outhouse, bear box or camp sites, just the locks for the horses and field. That was back in the 90's.

now you can level-up by switching to LiFePO: www.mightymaxbattery.com/shop/lifepo4/12v-35ah-u1-lithium-replacement-battery-for-goal-zero-yeti-400-solar-generator/ can still add addt'l batts in series, but now you have cut your weight in half, increased the charge cycle lifespan by 8x's, can charge faster, AND, you can drain to 0% (unlike 50% for the lead acid batts).

Have you tried this set- up? Any updates? I asked this question to the goal zero rep, if I can upgrade my yeti 400 using lithium and he said NO.

Very nice. Did you contemplate lining the interior of the box with copper mesh? I understand it may be costly, but it would protect your system. I think this is a BA setup. Again, very nice. 👍🏻 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I have this setup and would also like to know where I can find those 2 battery cases with the meter. I have not had luck finding cases similar enough to the ones you have. They're exactly what I'm looking for but I cannot find them. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi. Thanks for this video! Was there adequate tree coverage there so the tent isn't in the sun all day? And was the creek down below good for young kids (easy access, 'beach' area however small, wadeable?)

Thanks for your video very helpful. I’m trying to use a small but heavy weight dolly hand truck to stack my yeti 400 on top of two battery boxes. Both are daisychain together to triple the total power of the yeti 400. The question I have is how did you wire in your voltmeter
@Teadrinker710

How do you charge the chained batteries when you’re camping? Let’s say you start off with just one battery that is chained to the yeti, they are both full and you start off by using 50 watts but you’re pulling in 20 watts, how is that balanced, is the 50 coming from the back up, the yeti or both(25 x 2)? Do they charge together together simultaneously (10x2) or does it just charge one at a time? I understand the concept i just don’t understand how you charge the battery that is daisy chained. Thank you for any help

Team LeBong, when you chain 2 batteries together they essentially become 1 bigger battery - meaning they both charge and discharge simultaneously.

The Goal Zero Unit allows for the charging. You could charge it via a cable you order from goal zero that connects any after market solar panel. Or you could use AC power to charge the batteries. The idea is to rely on solar. Goal Zero really dummy proofs the whole Solar Generator market, otherwise you need about 4 pieces of equipment to get up and running. The daisy chaining mentioned in this video is kind of a “hack” to double or triple the runtime of the lead acid yeti 400 at 1/5 the cost of another yeti 400. It basically makes it run for 2 or 3 times longer between charges. Really nice to be able to run lights, charge phones, portable lithium batteries, laptops, camera batteries. Etc etc...

We stayed at Jacob Branch last year. I think Shinny Creek is a much better option. Less secluded, but better water source, a trash bin, and a lot less uphill with all your gear. I'll be staying there next time I return to South Mountain.

Marshal Allen the stream is about 8 -10 feet across, maybe a bit more, with very good flow. Excellent for filtering water. I camped here last month, just prior to memorial day weekend. I got site #1, and it was on a grade just like the review showed. I used a hammock, so it wasn't too bad for me. But it's too steep for a tent, for certain. Good luck.
