GET TO KNOW YOUR GEAR
HOW IT WORKS
Plug the 8mm blue-ringed cable into the INPUT port on the Goal Zero Yeti or
Sherpa and angle the Boulder 100 Briefcase toward the sun with the attached
kickstand. You’ll get the best solar charging experience if you continue to
reposition the solar panel throughout the day.
HOW TO CHAIN
To chain Boulder 100 Briefcase together, and for Boulder configurations over
150W, you’ll need to purchase a combiner cable from Goal Zero.
To chain multiple Boulder 100 Solar Panels together, you’ll need to purchase
the 4x 8mm Anderson Connector Cable (SKU 98060) from Goal Zero.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Are the Boulder Solar Panels waterproof?
A: Yes. The Boulders are designed to withstand the elements, so they’re great
for permanent and semi-permanent installations. What you’re recharging from
the Boulders is what needs your help to stay dry, so keep those power packs
and power stations
covered up and protected from the dust, rain, and snow.
Q: Can I chain a Boulder 100 Briefcase with other Boulders?
A: Depends on the panels. Yes, you can chain the Boulder 100 Briefcase with
other Boulders that have an 8mm input or input connector, like the Boulder 50
or the older Boulder 30, by inserting the 8mm blue-ringed connector of the
Boulder 100 Briefcase
into the 8mm input of the other Boulder Solar Panel. When chaining Boulder
Solar Panels in configurations over 150W, you’ll need to purchase a combiner
cable from Goal Zero. Give our customer solutions center a call to determine
the right cable for your setup.
Q: What can I charge directly from the Boulder Solar Panels?
A: All of our Boulder Solar Panels are designed to charge Sherpa Power Packs
and Goal Zero Yeti Portable Power Stations. If you’re looking to recharge
things like headlamps, phones, and other USB devices, check out our foldable
Nomad Solar Panels.
Q: Can I mount the Boulder Solar Panels to my roof?
A: The Boulder 100 Briefcase is not designed to be mounted permanently to a
fixture; this briefcase fold-and-go style allows you to be more portable. For
mountable panels, take a look at the Boulder 50 and 100 Solar Panels.
