G'day Tyson,

It wont.  Goal Zero use 8mm terminals to connect all the charging and solar optios to the Yeti series.
If you want to use a standard solar panel with these, you'll have to pick up an Anderson to 8mm adapter cable.
We dont have these available, but they can be picked up through Jaycar or Goal Zero Australia.

G'day Vincent,

The Yeto 500x will give you approximately 33Ah before needing to be recharged.
Depending on which model fridge you have and its average power consumption, you could get anywhere between 10-15hrs of solid run time (based on the most common average).
If you have solar panels connected, and the battery is constantly being kept topped up with good sunlight, you could ultimately run your fridge consistently without issues.

G'day Shaun,

The solar requirements on the 500x are:
Input Power:  8mm Port, 13−22V up to 10A, 120W Max.

This means that the Boulder 100 is more than suitable.  The information we have provided by Goal zero on these panels was written before the Yeti X series was released, so it doesn't include the new power stations.

G'day David,

Sure! As long as your Sherpa 100PD has the USB C double-ended cable.

G'day Peter,

Technically you could, but we wouldn't recommend it if possible.  They're very much a plug & play style brand where they're designed to work seamlessly with other Goal Zero products.  Kind of like Apple products I guess. They use a particular 8mm port which is not a standard 12v power system connection, and their panels and power stations are just designed to work together.
The Boulder Briefcase Solar Panels are the ideal option for the 500X Power station

G'day Mandy,

It is possible that you could use the Yeti 500X with a heater or an electric blanket, however, they would need to be very low wattage. The 240V maximum output is 300W, so anything greater than this will cause damage to the unit, most heaters will be 500W , but you might be able to find something smaller. I'm not too sure about most electric blankets, but if you double-check the tags on your blanket it should state the wattage required.

G'day RB,

The AC Output on the Yetu 500X is 300W (1200W surge), so this will rule out a kettle or hairdryer. You should be able to run a small fan depending on the wattage. You can charge a MacBook directly from the unit as the inverter is a pure sine wave, but we'd recommend avoiding using the laptop at the same time as charging it. The 500X has a larger capacity battery, and can handle higher wattages than the 200X version.

G'day Manoj,

The Goal Zero Yeti 500X Lithium Portable Power Station comes with an AC wall charger, however, if you want to charge this unit through your 12v cigarette outlet in your car you'll be needing the compatible Goal Zero Regulated Car Charge Cable 8mm.

G'day Graham,

These units are pretty new in Australia, so we've not really had to time to hear how they're going. In general, we've always found Goal Zero products to be very good, and not really had issues with their previous models. I'm not too sure where you've seen these reviews, but I can assure you that if you did have any problems our warranties team are top-notch, and do an excellent job.

G'day Sam,

The maximum solar input via the 8mm port is 120W.

G'day Sally,

Goal Zero manufactures its products, including the Yeti 500X in China.
