Goal zero yeti 150 & cpap

speaking of rich folks. got a Bass Pro shop mailer lately and Yeti now has what looks like one of those squarish 12 can zip top coolers for only $250.

Not sure if we're back to CPAP or if we're still Yeti-bashing. Regarding the Yeti, there is no RV attached to it. It is either in my car or in my tent or next to a folding table set up at an overlook, or being lugged from one to another. This is its value.

No bashing. This is an RV forum so unless someone specifies otherwise it is reasonable to assume the use of a product is in relation to an RV.

Since RVs already have an adequate power source it makes more sense to use it rather than purchase the Yeti which is expensive and has a tiny battery. Spending the money to upgrade the RV may be a better use of the $$.

FYI, there is a tent camping section of RV.net. Not everyone here has an RV. They might have tents. They might have nothing and just be in the planning stages.

Also, not all RV's have "adequate" power sources and even those who do (like me) sometimes use a backup or second power source.

That said, no Yeti bashing please. Sure, there are less expensive ways to do the job. There are also less expensive RV's, but do we all choose them?

The OP's question was would a Yeti 150 do the job. Most of us are saying no because that particular model of Yeti cannot handle the load well. Another Yeti or another power source might work fine.

OK guys, my question about the Yeti for use with a cpap in my camper had been answered. I didn't want to kick off a thread bashing Yeti. Only wanted to know if anyone used it for a cpap and you have confirmed what I thought that it is not going to do the job and I will be better off using the camper batteries. Thanks to everyone who responded to my question.

Nothing against YETI. Just about anything gets bashed around pretty hard here.

Not that hammer!

A framing hammer! The one with the waffle head!

Ah, abalone ... memories from my Navy days around San Diego in the 70s and 80s.

On a different tangent, I bought a cheapie inverter for my cpap and notice it is MSW ... my CPAP warns not to use a MSW inverter ... but seems to work ok.

Am I going to get busted for harvesting undersize abalone with a framing hammer?
