Hi All - I just got my goal zero yeti 1000 and my renogy 200w suitcase panels just arrived. https://www.renogy.com/renogy-200-watt-eclipse-monocrystalline-solar-suitcase-open-box-like-new/
First problem is that none of the connectors/cables with the renogy look like they would fit into the yeti inputs. I also see that the 2 panels are wired to a solar controller on the renogy and it looks like the normal wiring would then go straight to a battery (alligator clips). Since the yeti 1000 has a built in solar controller, I assume somehow I bypass this. I really have no idea what im doing with either of these devices yet, first time user of them, so was hoping someone could help me understand what exactly I need to connect the panels to the yeti safely (and the extension cable to get it 30').
Thanks
JD
