With Rad’s proprietary batteries at risk of losing factory support, AmericanElectric Energy steps in with freshly built, high-quality battery packs with UL-listed cell brands such as Samsung, LG, Molicel & Panasonic, engineered and assembled in South Florida.

 

The uncertainty surrounding Rad Power Bikes has prompted many e-bike owners to look closely at the future of their battery support. After the company filed a WARN notice in November 2025—signalling a possible shutdown by early 2026—questions about replacement parts, repair infrastructure, and long-term serviceability have intensified. This is especially pressing for riders who depend on Rad’s proprietary battery system.

As riders evaluate next steps, one solution is gaining traction: new, U.S.-manufactured lithium battery packs designed to replace Rad Power units.

Freshly Made — Not Refurbished

AmericanElectric Energy manufactures brand-new lithium battery packs, built from the ground up using premium components. These are not refurbished or harvested-cell units. Each pack is:

  • Freshly Made to order

  • Built using UL-Listed 21700 cells from Samsung, LG, Molicel or Panasonic

  • Powered by high-quality Battery Management Systems (BMS) engineered for stability, thermal safety, and long lifecycle performance

  • Manufactured at the company’s facility in:
    Florida, USA

With the instability surrounding Rad’s supply chain, riders now have an option that is both reliable and domestic — bypassing international backorders or the risk of discontinued OEM inventory.

Made in the USA for a More Transparent Supply Chain

The industry’s reliance on overseas components has historically placed riders at the mercy of manufacturing delays, tariff fluctuations, and international logistics. AmericanElectric Energy’s U.S.-based production minimises these risks, offering:

  • Clear delivery timelines

  • A steady flow of components

  • U.S.-backed quality control

  • A 1-year warranty honored domestically

This solves an industry-wide problem: e-bike ownership is only as sustainable as its battery support. When OEM supply collapses — as Rad may — riders need continuity they can trust.

Designed for Long-Term Serviceability

Beyond offering new packs, AmericanElectric ensures that components and support remain available over time. Their engineering approach prioritizes:

  • Thermal safety

  • Consistent output under varying load

  • Balanced discharge across all cell groups

  • BMS firmware designed for long-term reliability

In short: these are packs built for the long haul, not just a temporary fix.

Rad Power’s instability has left many riders searching for dependable ways to preserve the utility of their bikes. Freshly built, U.S.-made replacement packs from AmericanElectric Energy offer a clear path forward — one rooted in quality, traceability, and long-term support.
