Q: Apple Pencil won't charge

Starting with a new Pencil.  After about 10 charges the (connector coupling) the device that gets you from the wall charger to the pencil...that coupling begins to lose pin tolerance.  So sometimes the pencil will charge and sometimes not.  This of course is very irritating.  Must be a manufactured defect and Apple needs to make good on it for those that purchased the Pencil. Any feedback to this post would be appreciate.
