apple pencil battery has 3%

FYI and something Apple never divulges to it potential iPad Pro/Apple Pencil customers/users unless the potential customer/user is smart enough to ask about.

Due to the “always on and active/standby” nature of the Apple Pencil and, also, due to its very teeny, tiny rechargeable Li-ion battery ( smaller than the eraser head on a REAL wooden pencil ), the Apple 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.

The Apple Pencil needs to be kept charged to a minimum of 5-10% all the time.

If the Apple 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 Apple Pencil will be dead and you may have to “pop” for another $99/$129 Apple Pencil, onceagain!

You need to keep your Apple Pencil charged all the time, even if it is only to 10%-15% charge. It must keep some charge level in that tiny Lithium-ion battery at all times!

Simple answer. No!

How long have you had this Apple Pencil?

If less than a year old, Apple will issue you a free replacement.

If older than a year old, then you may have to purchase another new Apple Pencil.

Hello,

If you have left Apple Pencil’s battery discharged for an extended period of time then you may killed its battery. I suggest that you reach out to Apple for assistance.
