Thanks for the update Matt! I requested to be connected with a different support rep at GZ and they mercifully granted my wish. Things are going much smoother now that I'm in contact with an EE; I think we're getting there. He thinks it might be an indirect short on the control board. I...

Thanks for the info. The part that was most surprising to me is that it draws through the charge port even when the 12V output port is "off". I think I'll break up the input line with a relay that is tied to the ignition. Still a pretty slick setup, but not as slick as I'd hoped. If I were...

I like the concept, but the idea of setting up the multitude of support poles and guy-lines is unappealing. It also fragments the egress - I think wheeling bikes or motos under there and dodging poles/lines would get old. If somebody made one that could support itself with only the rotating...

Bump. Any ideas? @snowblind did you have a chance to test your unit? I am in contact with Goal Zero, but thus far have been wholly underwhelmed with the support. It took ~3 days to get a response on my initial inquiry, and ~4 extra days to get a reply after I tried to clarify details of my...

It's reasonably new - I bought it direct from Yeti on Black Friday

Yes, the reset procedure was on of the first things I tried. No luck.

Car OFF, Yeti 12V OFF, Yeti shows no draw, but I can run any of my 12V circuits. Car OFF, Yeti 12V ON, it shows the draw from the 12V circuits (like normal). Thanks for the input. I'd definitely be interested to hear if you can recreate this scenario. I talked to Yeti on the phone and they...

Update: I've tried to troubleshoot the issue by isolating my power systems and have come to the conclusion that when directly wired to the car battery, with the car off, the GZ400 (AGM) will not draw power from the car batt to charge itself, but WILL draw power to supply any 12V output loads...

Any developments for Chevy folks? (specifically Express folks)

Busy week but I'll try to get some photos. I didn't modify the stock brackets just made new ones out of aluminum stock instead. I'm using a BBQ tank because they're available everywhere and easy to swap in/out. The safety of this method vs exterior mount is a subject of great debate - I'm...

I just put an HS2211 in my Express last week - used it for the first time this weekend in Jackson. There are 5-6 threads on TheSamba.com showing install. It's pretty straightforward IMO. I installed mine inside alongside the passenger wheel well. I was unable to use the supplied brackets for...

I did the reset last night - no change. I'll call GZ today.

Question for the collective: I have my Yeti 400 hardwired to the car battery via 8mm to MC4 connectors and 8AWG wire, like many other posters have shown here. It charges when the vehicle is running and works great. For output, I have the 12V to ring terminal cord connected to a Blue Sea fuse...

I've been patiently waiting for somebody to take the leap and determine what tire will fit for the slider version of the AWD Express. Seems like there should be a better way to figure this out ahead of purchasing wheels tires, but so far, that appears to be the only way to know for sure! I...

Ceiling and walls looks good. Nice job! Where'd you source the counter? Looks great.

Galley looks nice. What did you use for the countertop?

I dig the front bumper on that Express. Anybody know who makes it?

Bumping this thread for a quick firewall wiring Q: Currently running my power for the house battery. I've drilled a ~1/2" hole in the firewall and am able to get wire loom through it. Is that sufficient protection for the wires or should I be using a rubber grommet instead?
