WatchOS 10.2 drains battery in ~6 hours?

I upgraded my Series 9 to WatchOS 10.2 last night, and just got a low battery warning (at 10%). The watch was on the charger last night, and it's 7hours since it was removed.


Is anybody else seeing dismal battery life? Hopefully this is a fluke, but if it persists, then we have a real problem here.

Found a solution:

Unpair, and then repair your watch to your phone.


I know it sounds crazy, but I did it out of frustration one night, and the next morning everything was working as normal again, no more insane battery drain.
