CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter: Smart, Swappable Power for Modern Life - Interview

We sat down with Hayk Malkhasyan, founder of CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter, to talk about the journey behind their Kickstarter campaign — a modular, high-performance charging system designed for people who live, travel, and create on the move. With its intelligent energy distribution, swappable batteries, and 200W AC output, this is a charger which is shaping the future of portable power.

Power Without Limits: The Vision Behind CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter

What inspired the creation of CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter, and how did your experience as a team of engineers and creators shape its vision?

CorePlus was born from a simple but powerful idea — to free people from being tied to the wall. Our team of engineers, travelers, and creators wanted a power solution that could truly go anywhere without compromise. Traditional power banks always felt limited, so we reimagined what “portable energy” could mean for modern life.

We designed CorePlus for those who create, travel, and work anywhere — a sleek, modular system that powers everything from laptops and cameras to drones and even household appliances. It’s more than a power bank; it’s freedom in your hand.

Engineering Smart, Compact Power

Fitting 27,000mAh of capacity, a 200W AC socket, and triple 140W USB-C ports into a slim 16cm body sounds like a major challenge. What were the biggest engineering hurdles, and how did you overcome them?

Fitting 27,000mAh of capacity, a 200W AC socket, and triple 140W USB-C ports into a slim 16cm body was no small task. The biggest challenge was managing heat and maintaining high efficiency within tight safety margins.

Our engineers developed an advanced thermal balance system that keeps every component operating safely, even under heavy load. Using automotive-grade materials and optimized airflow channels, we achieved both compact size and industrial durability — without sacrificing performance or safety.

The Innovation of Swappable Batteries

The modular battery system is one of CorePlus’s standout features. How did you refine this design to ensure reliability, safety, and true mobility?

We spent nearly two years refining our swappable battery design. The goal was to create a long-lasting, airline-safe solution that eliminates downtime. Each battery — whether 22,000mAh or 27,000mAh — can be replaced in seconds, so you always have fresh power ready.

This innovation helps professionals, travelers, and filmmakers stay productive anywhere. Instead of waiting for a recharge, they can simply swap and continue working. It’s a system built for reliability and true mobility.

Smart Energy for Every Device

With so many devices to charge — laptops, cameras, drones — how does CorePlus manage power distribution to maintain stability and efficiency?

CorePlus automatically detects the connected device and allocates the right amount of power through its intelligent management system. Whether charging a drone, laptop, phone, or camera, it delivers precise energy to maximize efficiency and battery health.

The AC, DC, and USB-C ports can all operate simultaneously, allowing users to power multiple devices without voltage drops. This smart balancing system ensures stable output and device protection, no matter how demanding the setup is.

What’s Next for CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter

Once the CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter campaign concludes, what can backers and future users expect next from the brand?

CorePlus is just the beginning. Our long-term vision is to create a modular energy ecosystem — one where portable batteries, charging docks, and smart accessories connect seamlessly to fit any lifestyle.

We’re already working on next-generation products, including solar-powered versions, portable stations, and battery-integrated outdoor gear such as freezers and lighting systems. Our mission is to build a brand that powers both creativity and adventure — wherever life takes you.

Thank you to Hayk Malkhasyan and the CorePlus team for sharing their journey behind CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter. With modular batteries, intelligent power management, and industrial-grade engineering, CorePlus is redefining what it means to stay charged, creative, and connected — anywhere in the world.

Campaign Update # 1 — November 23, 2025

The CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter has reached US$ 271,770 with 1,642 backers and 22 days remaining. This week, the team provided detailed clarifications on pass-through charging, confirming that CorePlus prioritizes powering connected devices first and stops charging the internal battery once full to reduce wear.

They also addressed compatibility questions: the 120W GaN charger offered as an add-on can replace most laptop and phone chargers and is required to charge CorePlus itself. Additional responses covered power distribution across multiple USB-C ports, how AC/DC usage affects output, and region-specific socket options — with Indian plug types selectable in the post-campaign survey, plus a free travel adapter included for all backers.

More technical breakdowns and demos are expected as the campaign continues.

Campaign Update # 2 — November 30, 2025

The CorePlus Power Bank on Kickstarter continues its rapid ascent, now at US$ 333,187 pledged of its US$ 3,000 goal, backed by 1,920 supporters with 15 days remaining, as momentum builds toward the next milestone.

The team announced a new stretch goal at $350K that will upgrade every backer’s reward for free: wireless charging for all CorePlus battery modules. This enhancement will allow each module to wirelessly charge a phone, power an Apple Watch, and function independently from the main CorePlus unit—ideal for travel, minimalist setups, and cable-free convenience.

The creators also hinted at additional reveals to come, including new add-ons, videos, and community-driven upgrades as the campaign continues to grow.

More updates are expected as the CorePlus Power Bank pushes toward the wireless-charging stretch goal.
