Q: Can I use third party, non-Goal Zero lead-acid batteries with the Link?
A: Although not recommended yes, you can use any 12V SLA or AGM deep
cycle lead acid battery with the Link. However, you will need a Goal Zero
Male Link Chaining Cable to connect your batteries to the Link.
Q: If I’m using my own third party lead acid batteries, how do I wire them up?
A: When connecting multiple 12V lead-acid batteries to your Link, be sure
to connect the batteries in parallel. Parallel connections will increase your
current rating, but the voltage will stay the same.
WARNING: Connecting batteries in series will increase the voltage,
causing damage to the unit and possible personal injury or death.
Q: How many lead acid batteries can I plug into the Link?
A: You can attach as many 12V lead-acid batteries to your Link as you’d like.
Q: Why is my Link only charging my Yeti up to 98%?

protection is in place to protect and prolong the life of your battery. Second
generation Yeti Lithium power stations equipped with the latest firmware
updates can be charged to 100%.
Q. Once you put the Link into Vehicle mode, does it stay in Vehicle mode until
you put it back into Tank Mode?
A. The Yeti Link will stay in Vehicle mode until you manually change it back to
Tank mode. If moving the unit from your vehicle to then chain it to the Tank
batteries in your home, you will need to change the Link from Vehicle Mode
to Tank Mode.
Q. Would the solar still feed the Vehicle battery when the Vehicle is not
running?
A. Yes, if you have a solar panel plugged directly into the 8mm port on the Yeti
Link, the panel will be charging both the Yeti and your Vehicle battery when
it isn’t running.
