MIT Startup CyberPika Launches Smart GaN E-Bike Charger to extend battery life

BOSTON - Amzeal -- CyberPika announced the launch of its next-generation Smart GaN Charger for e-bikes and scooters, featuring four adjustable charging modes, fast charging, portable design, and enhanced safety protections.

"Over the years, E-bikes and scooters have become more sophisticated and smarter. However, the chargers powering them haven't changed much. We designed the CyberPika Smart Charger to make e-bike charging safer, smarter, and built to last," said Dr. Jason Xia, Founder & CEO (MIT EECS PhD, 2012). "It's time to charge smarter."

Smarter Charging, Longer Battery Life

Most e-bike chargers default to 100% charging — a practice that shortens battery lifespan, reduces range, and increases safety risks. CyberPika's Smart Charger applies the proven "20/80 Rule" used in EVs, offering four charging modes (80%, 100%, 50%, 20%) to optimize battery health, extend lifespan by 2–3×, and save riders hundreds of dollars in replacement costs.

Four Modes for Every Rider Scenario

• 80% – Default Daily Ride Mode: For everyday commuting and battery longevity.
• 100% – Adventure Mode: Full charge for longer rides.
• 50% – Storage Mode: Ideal for long-term storage or seasonal breaks.
• 20% – Shipping Mode: Safe charge level for bike shipping or transport.

Fast Charging & Compact Design

Weighing only 19 oz (540 g) and measuring 6.1″ × 2.9″ × 1.2″, the charger is 30% smaller than typical OEM models, making it ideal for commuters, multi-bike households, and travelers.
