Goal Zero Yeti Options (4000 Pro, 3000X, 6000x)

If you are planning to do much with your camper van that takes you away from power hookups, then a battery or power system is a must-add-on! These systems allow you to take your conversion van truly off-road and away from busy campsites – so you can park your van wherever you adventure takes you and still enjoy all the amenities of power like climate control, food refrigeration, and device charging. And if your mind immediately goes to the traditional gas-powered generators as an off-grid power supply – let us introduce you to something so much more convenient, sophisticated, and functional.

The Goal Zero Yeti power stations offer a top-of-the-line and unique option for powering your camper van off grid, requiring no noisy generator that needs to be refilled every few hours, just the ability to charge while driving, and an abundance of power to easily run any device or appliance in your van!

Goal Zero Yeti 4000 Pro

The Yeti 4000 Pro is the most sophisticated portable power bank Goal Zero produces, with 80% more power than any previous generation products. With powerful generation inverter technology, a 3600-Watt output, and up to 7200-Watt surge, the Yeti 4000 Pro is able to power even heavy-duty appliances with ease – whether for you camper van or your home as a back-up power source. It is the largest power station rated for portable outdoor use, and meets all applicable safety standards with a meticulously designed battery system featuring over 100 checkpoints per second.

The 1800 Watt AC power in means it is able to charge 3x faster than any previous generation stations, with a low 2 hour charge time from 0% to 80%. It will charge as you drive you van down the road, and if needed you can plug it in at home to charge it as well. For renewable charging solutions, the Yeti PRO 4000 is also built with a massive 3000-Watt solar input for rapid off-grid charging, given enough solar input.

This means you spend less time charging your power station, and more time enjoying your adventures and all the comforts of home power in your camper van, including 20 ports for plugging in a versatile array of devices. With its new LiFePO4 battery technology, this power station has an incredible class-leading lifespan of over 4000 charge cycles – durability that leads the industry.

Yeti 3000X

As its name implies, the Goal Zero Yeti 3000X offer 3000 Watt-hours of power, with 2,000 Watts of output and a 3500-Watt surge, allowing you to run even more power-hungry appliances without concern. More powerful, safer, and far easier to use than a traditional generator, the Yeti 3000X provides 7 varied ports for multiple types of device plug-ins, including fast-charging 60 watt USB-C, USB-A, 12V, and 12V AC ports.

When paired with the Goal Zero Power App, you have precision remote control of the station’s power consumption, power in and out, as well as data with charging profiles and real-time power consumption notifications. What generator will give you that kind of easy monitoring and touch-control? None, as far as we can find!

As with all power stations in the Goal Zero Yeti system, the 3000 X will charge as you drive, or can be charged from 0-100% using the Goal Zero 600W Power Supply Wall Charger. The integrated MPPT charge controller also ensures you are getting most efficient charge from solar panels, such as the ultra-convenient and portable Goal Zero Boulder Briefcase! It provides enough power to function as a versatile portable home back-up system – with ability to run up to four essential home circuits.

Yeti 6000X

The primary difference between the Yeti 3000 and 6000X being the 3,000 or 6,000 Watt Hours they provide. The 6000X shares all the other same innovative and intelligently designed features of the 3000X, including the safe, powerful lithium battery and durable, road-ready construction.

The Goal Zero Yetis are all built with an aluminum chassis so they will hold up to the rigors of even the toughest off-road adventures. They are also thoughtfully designed with five levels of safety and a two-layer construction to protect them from short-circuiting and overvoltage.

What are you waiting for?

Both the Yeti 4000 Pro, and its earlier generation cousins the Yeti 3000X and 6000X are designed a part of the Goal Zero ecosystem, which offers highly functional movable power solutions that function just as well for home-backup in emergencies, for trailers, work sites, and more. So with any unit in this series, you are getting more than just a way to run you conversion van’s AC system.

A stand-alone system, the Goal Zero Yeti power stations do not require us to internally connect components for it to function – meaning far lower labor cost than traditional manually integrated power systems. We mount it to your van with straps, wherever best works with your custom interior layout, so it does not shift around under way. Of course, being a portable station – you can always unmount and move it as desired But once it is mounted and the custom electrical reroute package is run through your van (meaning no extension cords, and direct power everywhere you need it) the Yeti power station really is the best plug and play power solution for the unique demands of adventure van life.
