Goal Zero Yeti 1500 (6th Gen)

IPX4 and aluminium — the only one built to sit outside, at a premium. At $1,499.95, Goal Zero's 2026 model sits at the premium end of the category — the portable Power Stations we compare run from $249 to $4,799. It scores 6.4/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Output Power at 8.5/10 — continuous AC output and whether the surge rating is genuine. The weakest is Expandability at 1.0/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: roughly twice the cost per watt-hour of the Chinese-brand competition; and not expandable at all, unlike rivals at half the price. Every specification on this page comes from Goal Zero's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.
