2026year8, a delegation from a Vietnamese shared power bank startup flew to Shenzhen to visit the modern manufacturing base of Shenzhen Honeycomb Era Technology Co., Ltd. in Fuyong, Baoan (official website www.fengwoshidai.com). From the mold workshop, the SMT line to a backend operations demo, after a half-day tour the Vietnamese guests gave a very direct verdict: "What we want is not individual devices, but a complete system ready to roll out across Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City."
This visit also marks another group of first-line Southeast Asian entrepreneurs welcomed by Honeycomb Era in Chargefuze team, 2026after the visit of the US team earlier this year.
The Vietnamese startup delegation came precisely because of Shenzhen Honeycomb Era Technology Co., Ltd.’s deep technology accumulation and strong manufacturing capability in the shared power bank field.
Shenzhen Honeycomb Era Technology Co., Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise integrating R&D, design, manufacturing and sales of shared power banks and e-bike battery swap cabinets. The founder and core team have worked in the shared power bank and swap cabinet industry for over ten years. Upholding the philosophy of 'striving for excellence and perfection', the company independently developed its shared power banks and stations with complete intellectual property rights.
During the tour, the Vietnamese delegation gained an in-depth understanding of the company’s full industry-chain layout. Rooted in Shenzhen, the company has a 10,000 m2 plant with 100 staff, including a hardware/software R&D engineering team of 30. With monthly capacity of 1,000,000 power banks and 100,000 stations. Through deep integration of manufacturing processes, the company has achieved integrated smart production from mold making, injection molding and SMT to assembly and packaging, efficiently controlling product quality and delivery cycles. It is this end-to-end in-house capability that keeps Honeycomb Era’s delivery stable in the face of large-volume, multi-batch orders from overseas clients - a point especially critical for Vietnamese startups eager to scale fast.
1. Vietnam: A "Golden Window" of Certain Demand and Scarce Supply
Vietnam is repeating the structural opportunity China had in 2017—2019 , the years before shared power banks took off there - but with a younger profile:
·Population of nearly 1 billion; median median age around 32 years old, with over 35 of the population under 60%；
·Smartphone penetration of about 84%—85%，4G coverage of 99.8%，5G is accelerating in the core districts of Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang;
·2026 In Q1 +16.43%, Vietnam’s QR-code payment transaction count grew +52.4%year on year and value by POS - a cashless society that skipped the VietQR；
·Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and Nha Trang have rich tourism and nightlife economies with long annual hot periods - devices drain fast outdoors, yet public charging coverage is low. Nationwide deployment remains at the tens-of-thousands-of-units level and no leading brand has been settled;
·Internal industry estimates: Vietnam’s current shared power bank penetration is below 5%, and premium venues (shopping districts, nightclubs, scenic areas, long-distance bus stations, airport hotels) are in a "first to deploy, first to own" stage.
Combined with the Vietnamese government’s relaxed stance on approvals and taxes for foreign-invested sharing-economy projects, 2026—2028 is widely recognized in the going-global community as a window of "low competition, high margins".
1.1 The Solution
2. Safety and Compatibility: Building User Trust With Hardcore Certification and All-Protocol Fast Charging
Vietnam is hot year-round (30℃+) and highly humid, so power bank heat dissipation and over-temperature protection directly determine user experience and repeat rentals. Meanwhile, local phone brands are fragmented - OPPO（VOOC), Xiaomi (QC), Samsung (AFC/PPS) and Apple (PD) coexist. If a power bank does not support mainstream protocols, users cannot charge their phones and churn quickly.
Core configuration across the Honeycomb Era product line:
Fast charging: 22.5Wsuper fast charging, compatible with the QC3.0+PDdual protocols, with a built-in three-in-one cable (Type-C + Micro-USB + Lightning), covering 99%of phone models on sale.
Safety protection: built-in intelligent BMSbattery management system delivering quadruple protection against overcharge, over-discharge, short circuit and over-temperature; the enclosure uses PC+ABS V0grade fire-retardant material.
International certifications: CE、FCC、RoHS、UN38.3all passed, meeting the import compliance requirements of Vietnam’s Ministry of Industry and Trade and ASEAN, reducing customs clearance and platform delisting risks.
Operations tip: mark "22.5W + QC/PD" and certification logos prominently on each device body - in offline venues this quickly builds safety awareness and lowers users’ decision cost.
3. Network Density: Flexible Station Configurations for Borrow-Anywhere Coverage
The convenience of shared power banks depends on being within reach. Vietnam’s core venues include bubble-tea shops, chain restaurants, large shopping malls, airport terminals and popular tourist attractions (Ha Long Bay, Da Nang, etc.) across Hanoi /Ho Chi Minh City. Different venues have very different requirements for device size and capacity.
Honeycomb Era offers stacked and vertical stations in multiple specifications:
Small venues (convenience stores, cafes): 4slot /8slot /12-slot stacked units: small footprint, plug-and-play, low cost for rapid rollout.
Large venues (malls, transportation hubs): 12slot /24-slot vertical high-capacity stations support high turnover at peak hours and reduce replenishment frequency.
Partner revenue model: rental revenue sharing (merchant commission of 30%~50%) with no equipment purchase cost for merchants; Honeycomb Era supports custom cabinet colors, LOGOand payment methods (local wallets such as VietQR、MoMo、ZaloPay). The backend shows real-time revenue per venue, allowing flexible adjustment of deployment strategy.
4. Data-Driven Operations: AIalerts + smart pricing to cut costs and boost efficiency
Once a network exceeds 100venues, manual inspection and rough pricing let O&M costs eat the profits. Refined operations depend on real-time data collection and analysis.
Core features of the Honeycomb Era backend management system:
Device online monitoring: online rate, remaining battery, borrow /return status, with automatic alerts for abnormal offline events.
AIFailure prediction: based on cell voltage, temperature and cycle count, battery degradation is predicted and replacement alerted 7days in advance, turning fault response from "passive repair" into "active maintenance" and saving 40%of O&M labor.
Dynamic pricing engine: based on time slots (weekday /weekend), weather (hot /rainy) and nearby events, rental prices adjust automatically (e.g., a 20%surge at scenic-area peaks, discounts at night) to maximize revenue per unit.
Automatic revenue-share settlement: merchant statements generated daily /with multi-tier sharing ratios, reducing manual finance reconciliation costs.
All data belongs exclusively to the operator. Honeycomb Era provides the Honeycomb Erasmart software system (supporting iOS/Android APPapps and mini programs) with customizable brand name and UIinterface - user data and revenue stay fully in your control.
5. Multi-Dimensional Monetization: From Single Rental Income to Composite Revenue
In Vietnam, revenue channels have expanded from single rental income to diversified monetization.
Combining the channels above, premium devices deployed at scenic areas, popular commercial districts and transportation hubs pay back in 3to 5months, with ample pure-profit margin afterward. Honeycomb Era provides a white-label software system so operators can run their own brand APPand backend independently - all user data and revenue remain in their own hands, achieving brand independence and maximum benefit.
