Frequently Asked Questions: Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 & Pellet Stove with Electric Auger

How long will a Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 run a pellet stove?

About 21.7 hours on AC power, with the pellet stove averaging 150 W (Medium fire heat setting: continuous combustion blower, room fan, and intermittent auger (150 W)). The Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 then draws about 184 W from its battery, including 22 W for the inverter itself. Best case: about 31 hours (Modulated low fire: motorized auger feed and exhaust fan running continuously (100 W)). Worst case: about 15.3 hours (Startup ignition cycle: ceramic electric glow igniter element active for first 15 minutes (500 W peak)). At 12 hours a day, that's about 1.8 days.

Can a Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 start a pellet stove?

Yes. The pellet stove's start-up peak of about 500 W (up to 750 W) fits within the Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000's 7,200 W surge rating, with 90% headroom even in the worst case.

How long does the Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 take to recharge?

On wall power: about 120 minutes to 80% and 150 minutes to full (Goal Zero figures). With its maximum 3,000 W of solar input connected, expect about 2,400 W in full sun, so a full recharge takes roughly 1.8 hours of full sun, so it can refill in a single day with 4 peak sun hours.

Can the Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 keep a pellet stove running during a power cut?

It can act as a backup supply: with the pellet stove plugged into the Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 and the Goal Zero Yeti PRO 4000 plugged into the wall, it switches the pellet stove to battery in about 10 ms when the grid fails (Goal Zero calls this UPS mode).
