16 and 32 GB Libertas models have been added to the Store page inventory.


As more tablet hardware shows up I will add it to the inventory. The particular hardware I am using is getting more and more difficult to get my hands on so I am only listing what I actually have in my possession at any given moment. I am also testing hardware for the next model and will provide updates as that progresses.

I will also be making some user friendly guides for the various tools available on the Libertas.

Stay tuned....

noteworthy problems with them. That being said - if you are going to go
with their Yeti 1250, do yourself a favor and skip the Goal Zero Boulder
panels and order a full sized 240-250 watt (mono or poly) solar panel.
It's a lot more bang for your buck and 250 watts is about the max the
Yeti's internal charge controller can handle. You would need to also get
the MC4-to-anderson power pole converter cord (goal zero sells this
item, but you have to call them) and enough MC4 (10awg) cord to support
your setup. It's worth mentioning that you can also add a second battery
and double the storage capacity of the Yeti 1250, giving you around 2500
watts of power. You need to make sure and match the internal battery of
the yeti which is a 12v 100ah SLA/AGM (can be found at …
