The Range

The great thing about the Goal Zero Range is how modular it is.

Yes that simple as we said thing modular.

Power Banks

This is the battery component of the system and can range in size from a small unit 2600mah with USB output for charging a phone all the way up to a Yeti 1250 which can output up to 1250 watts of power and has 240v plug points on the side ideal for base camp setups.

Solar Panels

These are the energy harvesting part of the system. The Goal Zero solar panels will hook directly up to your power bank and recharge them during the day so power is stored. Then the power banks can be used during the night or other times as the power is stored.

Goal Zero Products

Goal Zero products are simple and just work well. To boil it down you choose a power source depending on your needs or job at hand. For example if you need to keep a phone going pick a small powerbank like a sherpa 50 or smaller and it will charge your phone several times. If you are able to get to a power source like a wall socket every few days simply recharge the unit from the wall and continue to recharge your phone no need to include and solar panels.

Why do I need a solar panel?

If on the other hand you are away from home in the bush and no wall sockets available then simply match a solar panel that has usb outputs for recharging the powerbank in between use and you have a continuous source of power. It is that simple. Depending on the device for example a phone a venture 30 and 7 watt panel is all you will need for this task. The powerbanks and solar panels start to increase in size and weight depending on use. For example if you needed to run a fridge lighting and a laptop and phone all at the same time then you would look at a larger setup like a lithium 1400 and 100 watt solar panel.

Why are there so many different size units?

Again their are an assortment of power banks from small venture units for small digital devices up to yeti 3000 units that will run lots of lighting and power tools and even power small cabin setups. The best part about Goal Zero is all the units and panels are compatible so if you start off with a smaller system and grow out of it use wise you can add to it. It is modular in a sense that you can link powerbanks together for extra storage and also extra solar panels to speed up the recharge times.

Which System is best suited to my needs?

Before you charge or power a device, such as a smartphone, laptop or fridge, you first need to accumulate power in a battery. This stored battery power is then used to charge or power your device(s).
