Teardown: 65W 3-in-1 Power Bank With Retractable USB-C Cable

The AP03-10K packs a 10500mAh three-cell pack, a quasi-resonant GaN charger stage and a detachable retractable USB-C cable module rated to 65W.

The AP03-10K combines an AC adapter, a power bank and a captive retractable cable in a single body. Its nameplate lists a 10500mAh battery at 3.7V, or 38.85Wh, AC input of 100-240V at 50-60Hz with a 30W maximum on the USB-C input, and up to 65W output across two USB-C paths. The USB-A port is limited to 22.5W, and the unit carries CE, FCC and RoHS marks.

The enclosure measures 123.34mm by 47.19mm by 45.28mm and weighs 346.0g, with a captive cable about 70.5cm long. Testing recorded UFCS 1.0, PD3.0/PPS, QC3+, QC5, FCP, SCP and AFC support, with fixed PDOs up to 20V at 3.25A plus PPS ranges of 3.3-11V 4.5A and 3.3-21V 3.25A. Charging an iPhone 17 Pro Max measured 37.31W.

A colour display reports live input and output power, and a long press opens a menu with state of health, cycle count, cell temperature and the voltage of each of the three series cells. The retractable cable sits in a module that detaches through a 5-pin contact block, while the 3500mAh 18650 cells are tied together with laser-welded nickel strips.

The charger stage is a quasi-resonant flyback with synchronous rectification. A DK8065 controller integrates a 700V GaN switch, runs up to 200kHz with standby below 50mW, and pairs with a DK100R10VN synchronous rectifier carrying a 100V NMOS. A 600V 4A soft-recovery bridge and 400V bulk capacitors handle the mains input.

Power bank functions rely on a SW7201 four-switch bidirectional buck-boost controller rated to 100W for one to four cells, alongside SW6301 and SW6303 power bank SoCs that support multi-cell packs and UFCS. A PY32F030 microcontroller drives system logic and the screen, and a CM1332-DAT front-end protects the three-series pack.
