Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I took the Goal Zero Yeti 400 on a trekking trip in the Himayalas of Nepal. I was attracted to the lightish weight and the ability to charge from solar panels, and it seemed like a great option for keeping cell phones, cameras, and laptops charged while very much off the grid. The Goal Zero Yeti 400 worked for about a month with maybe 5-6 laptop charges over that time and some cameras and cell phones. Afterwards, it would no longer charge from the solar panels. During that month, it overheated and shut down several times when charging laptops. It was absolutely more trouble than it was worth.
