Credit card size HyperJuice is the world’s first 100W Gallium Nitride charger and also the world’s smallest 100W charger that is 50% smaller than current traditional chargers
With 100W, there is plenty of power to share around with 2 x USB-C (supporting Power Delivery 3.0) and 2 x USB-A (supporting Quick Charge 3.0) ports.
100W power provides the ability to quick charge a laptop (MacBook Pro), a tablet (iPad Pro), smartphone (iPhone), and mobile device (AirPods, Watch) all at the same time.
With 100W Dual USB-C Power Delivery, a single HyperJuice charger can power 2 laptops (two 15″ MacBook Pro) simultaneously.
So you can easily fit HyperJuice in any pocket and bring it wherever you go.
No need to mess with bulky power cables which can be bigger than the charge itself.
HyperJuice supports worldwide universal 100-240V voltage and comes with UK/EU/AU pin converters so that it can be used in virtually any country.
HyperJuice utilizes the industry-leading Navitas GaNFast NV6117 Power IC to miniaturize components normally found in traditional chargers. The new Gallium Nitride semiconductor material allows for power devices that can operate at higher voltages and switching frequency which results in smaller and more efficient chargers.
See the following video to learn more about GaN:
HYPER has spent almost a year perfecting the circuit design and firmware to fully utilize the Navitas GaNFast NV6117 Power IC to bring the HyperJuice charger to fruition.
We want to make the smallest 100W charger ever so the circuit board and components are laid out in the most compact and space-efficient manner. Only the industry’s most efficient components that can deliver the best performance in the smallest of space are used. The dense circuit board is then surrounded by high-density thin heat sinks to aid in heat dissipation. The entire package is then wrapped in a minimalist fire-resistant polycarbonate enclosure to complete the efficient design.
With so many electronics densely packed in a tiny space, there is a valid concern about heat generation and dissipation in such a small space.
So we measured the temperature across 30 points of the HyperJuice charger while it is charging the 15″ MacBook Pro from 0% to 100% battery level. The internal components temperature did not exceed 90ºC while the exterior housing temperature did not exceed 60ºC, beating industry-standards of 130ºC and 65ºC respectively.
HyperJuice generates lesser heat than other chargers because it is extremely efficient, around 95% (compared to Apple/Anker chargers with 91% efficiency). As shown in the photo above, with an input power of 106.4W, HyperJuice is able to output 100.72W (20.149*4.999). 100.72W/106.4W = 95%.

The following single shot unedited video shows a full working prototype of the HyperJuice 100W GaN Charger able to output 100W power to a 15″ MacBook Pro. In addition, it is able to charge another 15″ MacBook Pro, iPhone 11 Pro Max, and Apple Watch ( a total of 4 devices) all at the same time.
Power meter showing that HyperJuice 100W GaN Charger is providing 19.72V x 5.07A = 99.98W of power to HyperJuice USB-C Battery Pack.

HYPER by Sanho Corporation has been making award-winning portable power products since 2009. We also have a long proven track record of delivering Kickstarter and Indiegogo projects. Our previous portable power project, HyperJuice, the World’s First 130W USB-C Battery Pack is currently the most crowdfunded power bank project on Kickstarter ($1.4M). Our most successful Kickstarter and Indiegogo project, HyperDrive USB-C Hub for MacBook Pro, is currently the most crowdfunded MacBook and USB-C accessory ($3.1M). Our HyperDrive USB-C Hub for iPad Pro is the most crowdfunded iPad accessory ($1.2M). We also have the most crowdfunded wireless charging project ($717K). So we do have a lot of experience with high power charging, USB-C, and Apple products. This is our 22nd crowdfunding project. Our previous crowdfunding projects have altogether raised over $9.22 million and we have delivered to over 94000 backers.
No project is without risk and challenges but we try to do our absolute best to minimize them. We felt that we have done all the necessary preliminary work prior to coming to Kickstarter. We are also no strangers to portable power, USB-C, mobile accessories or crowdfunding.
The HyperJuice charger that you see in the above video/photos are actual full working prototypes.
With your support, we can bring HyperJuice to users worldwide. We have started mass production and your contribution will help us achieve economies of scale and keep the product cost low.
We have sufficient materials to manufacture about 5,000 units now. Beyond that, the lead time is about a month. Your strong support will give us the needed affirmation to place a larger raw materials order and start mass production earlier.
