Why does my Apple pencil take so long to charge?

About a week ago, I realized that my Apple Pencil (1st gen) was taking very long to charge - over 30mins to charge to 100% from 0%. I think this could be because I’ve dropped my Apple Pencil many times. I’m probably going to get a new one but I really want to know why this is happening, thanks.😊
