The new Yeti 1500 features exciting upgrades around power delivery, recharging, lifespan, and overall durability. The upgraded 2,000W inverter means you can power more things at once (and we've doubled the number of AC ports and increased USB Ports including 140W high-speed USB so you can really plug in); when you're empty you can fill up FAST with updated ultrafast recharging going from 0-80% in under an hour; new battery chemistry (LiFePO4 vs NMC in old models) in the new 1500 is rated to over 4,000 cycles meaning you can use this every single day for 10+ years; new IPX4 rating means the unit can hand some rain, dust, and mud so you don't have to be precious taking it outside (plus vibration testing means it can handle the bumpy ride to your destination). In short, you can run more stuff, fill up faster, and take on more adventures with confidence.

The new Yeti 1500 can power phones, laptops, tablets, cameras, lights, CPAP machines, TVs, Full size refrigerators, power tools, air purifiers, and any device you plug into a standard wall outlet. The power station offers both DC and AC power out, making it a great solution for both serious equipment as well as personal electronics that nowadays can run off DC for more efficient power delivery. The 3600W surge rating means it can also accomodate gear with compressors or motors that may require an initial spike in energy (think blenders, fridges, etc). Check your device’s wattage requirements — it must be below the continuous AC output rating (2000W) of your Yeti 1500. And when plugging multiple devices in at once, the cumulative wattage draw must not exceed that 2000W rating.

IPX4 is a lab-tested designation that means Yeti 1500 is rated to withstand splashing in any direction, but is not suitable for full on submersion. The most real-world application of this is if your unit is at your campsite, in the backyard, at a tailgate, etc and gets caught in the rain, it can handle it. We always recommend moving it to a dry location as soon as possible, but the port shields will keep your unit protected from moisture, rain, and mud, a common part of life outside. We strongly recommend not operating live loads in the rain.
