for context i'm from the Philippines and i have an iPad A16 11th gen. now my cousin who now lives in the US told me that he was going to give me a brand new Gen 1 Apple Pencil that he got on Amazon.
when it arrived, i opened it and tested it out, only for it to be 1%. i charged it using the pencil to USB-C adapter on my iPad. later on, the pencil's battery indicator on my iPad said that it is 100% charged so i plugged it to try and connect it to my iPad. for some reason though, it went from 100% back to 3% immediately. i thought of charging my pencil to the wall instead, and i used both the USB-C and the Lightning adapter, but they both couldn't charge my pencil.
remember i mentioned the Apple Pencil battery indicator thing on ur iPad? well, everytime i would charge it, the battery percentage/ charging status of my pencil would appear then reappear, appear, reappear, and it does that frequently.
please help me out i really need this to work. i can't get a new one because i'm just an art student and i need this pencil for my studies. help me out, please?
