Common questions

How many nights will the Goal Zero Yeti 1000 (6th Gen) run an electric blanket?
About 1 night of 8 hours (11 hours in total). An electric blanket averages about 75 W (150 W running, on about 50% of the time), and the 998 Wh battery gives about 848 Wh after inverter losses.
Can I run other things at the same time?
Yes, up to about 1,850 W more of the 2,000 W output. Each thing you add shares the same battery, so the 11 hours for an electric blanket gets shorter.
