It must keep some charge level in that tiny Lithium-ion battery at all times! You need to keep your Pencil CONSTANTLY charged up all the time, even if it is only to 10%-15% charge. If the Pencil battery is allowed to drain down to 0% and allowed to stay in that flat condition for more than a few weeks, or so, OR EVEN LONGER, that very tiny little Li-ion battery is too small to keep at a 0% state for a long period of time and it will fail and the Pencil will be dead and you may have to “pop” for another $99/$129 Pencil, once again!Īpple only has a one-year warranty on any Apple accessory items. The Pencil needs to be kept CONSTANTLY charged to a minimum of 5-10%, OR GREATER, all the time! Ion battery ( smaller than the eraser head on a REAL wooden pencil ), the Pencil needs to be constantly charged up to some significant charge level ALL THE TIME, even when not using the Pencil for prolonged periods of time.

If your Pencil/s sat around unused or unopened and not kept charged up for more than a few weeks, or so, ORĮVEN LONGER, then the battery in your Pencil may have failed and is dead and you will have to purchase anotherīrand new Pencil or get, if still under warranty, a free replacement Pencil from Apple.Īnd it looks like some things about the Pencil have NOT changed in the new version 2 model, either.ĭue to the “always on and active/standby” nature of the Pencil and, also, due to its very tiny rechargeable Li. You cannot store and/or NOT use Pencils for any prolonged period of time and NOT keep them charged up to some level. IF your Pencil EVER lay around unused for ANY prolonged period of time without being charged up and ready to use, then your Pencil battery may have failed and your Pencil may be dead. Prior to this issue, when was the last time your Pencil was charged up and used?
