Chaining solar panels to one yeti.
We recommend chaining solar panels in parallel positive to positive negative to negative etc.
The adapter you need to connect most third party solar panels to a yeti power station is either this anderson adapter or this 8mm adapter which one depends on if you want to use the app or the 8mm input.
Note that the only yeti power stations with the anderson input are yeti 1000 1250 1400 and 3000.
