I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Why We Love the Goal Zero Yeti 3000X Portable Power Station

The Goal Zero Yeti 3000X Portable Power Station is the largest battery in Goal Zero's Lithium lineup. It offers an exceptional amount of power for backup during power outages, as well as for car camping and off-grid gatherings. Unlike traditional gasoline generators, it is noise-free and environmentally friendly. Plus, it is highly portable with its mobile kit that includes wheels and a telescoping handle, making it easy to bring along to outdoor events and functions without straining your back.

The Yeti 3000X features a powerful 2000W AC inverter, allowing you to power a wide range of appliances and household items, including full-size refrigerators and power tools. With its impressive 3032Wh capacity, it can provide power for up to 31 hours of a 42-inch LCD TV, 87 hours of a mini fridge, charge a laptop 61 times, a tablet over 100 times, or a smartphone over 250 times. It is ideal for sound systems and portable speakers, making it perfect for off-grid parties, as well as for essential electronics during overnight power outages.

Charging the Yeti 3000X is simple. Just plug it into two wall outlets, and it will reach a full charge in approximately 14 hours. It can be stored for up to three months without compromising its capacity. To maintain its power capabilities, Goal Zero recommends periodically plugging it in between uses. Additionally, it can be charged using Goal Zero's solar panels. With the Boulder 100 solar panel, it takes about 34 to 68 hours to fully charge the Yeti 3000X, while the larger Boulder 200 Briefcase takes only 17 to 34 hours, depending on sunlight conditions. However, Goal Zero advises against using 12V vehicle power sources, as they may cause damage to both the vehicle and the power station.

The Yeti 3000X Power Station comes with a charging adapter for simultaneous use of two wall outlets, as well as a mobile carrying kit with wheels and a telescoping handle for easy transportation.
