Apple Pencil keeps disconnecting from iPad pro

Both brand spanking new. Fresh out of the box basically...!

I’m happily using the pencil with my newly set up iPad, but then it stops working, out of the blue.

I disconnect it, reconnect it, but it still doesn’t work.

I forget the device, reset my Bluetooth - nothing.

Restart the iPad, and it works for a bit after I set it up but then it happens again.

So annoying! What’s happening?! What can I do?!

iPad, iPadOS 13
