We’ve all been there: your phone hits 10%, panic sets in, and you realise your charger is sitting peacefully on your nightstand at home.
Australian electronics brand Chargeasap is trying to solve that exact flavour of low-battery anxiety forever. Enter Miko, a ridiculously tiny 30W GaN USB-C wall charger designed to live directly on your keyring. The logic is beautifully simple: you rarely leave the house without your keys, so you’ll never leave the house without a charger again.
The tech community is already buying into the vision. Miko launched on Kickstarter on 9th June 2026 and has already smashed past 490% of its funding goal, raking in over $49,000 from more than 780 backers in its opening days.
Tiny Footprint, Full 30W Power
Don’t let the size fool you. By leveraging Gallium Nitride (GaN) semiconductor technology, Chargeasap has managed to pack modern fast-charging speeds into a chassis that is shorter than a credit card.
How does it stack up against the competition? Here is the breakdown:
| Feature | Miko Specifications |
| Output | 30W USB-C PD 3.0 |
| Footprint | 60% smaller than Apple’s stock 30W charger |
| Weight | 47g (1.65 oz) — 56% lighter than Apple’s 30W brick |
| Cable | Built-in 17cm USB-C cable with integrated keyring clip |
| Prongs | US-style folding prongs for pocket safety |
| Colors | Orange, Tan, Navy |
Engineered for the Pocket
Miko’s design is impressively clever. The integrated 17cm USB-C cable isn’t just for charging—it actually wraps neatly around the body of the charger and snaps into a keyring clip.
Weighing in at just 47 grams, it’s lighter than most modern car key fobs. When it’s time to plug in, the US-style wall prongs fold out, letting you juice up an iPhone or Android device from 0 to 50% in just 30 minutes.
Who is it for? Commuters, minimalists, students, and travelers who want to ditch the tech-pouch bulk. If you carry a smartphone and a set of keys, Miko is designed to blend seamlessly into your everyday carry (EDC).
Availability and Early Bird Pricing
Crowdfunding always comes with a healthy dose of scepticism, but Chargeasap isn’t a newcomer. This marks the brand’s 14th crowdfunding campaign, having successfully delivered its previous 13 projects to backers across 100 countries.
The Miko Kickstarter campaign runs until 24th July 2026. If you want to snag one early, Chargeasap is currently offering early bird tiers at 48% off the planned retail price.
