How to Charge Apple Pencil First Generation

Apple Pencil has become an essential tool for many iPad users, offering a seamless and intuitive way to interact with their devices. For those who have the first generation of Apple Pencil, it’s important to know how to charge it properly to ensure optimal performance and longevity. In this article, we will guide you through the process of charging your Apple Pencil first generation.

Before you begin, make sure you have the following items ready:

• Apple Pencil first generation
• Lightning to USB cable
• Power adapter (5W or higher)

Step 1: Connect the Apple Pencil to the iPad

Insert the Apple Pencil into the Lightning port on the side of your iPad. Make sure it is fully inserted and securely connected.

Step 2: Connect the Lightning to USB cable

Take one end of the Lightning to USB cable and plug it into the Lightning port on the Apple Pencil. Then, take the other end of the cable and plug it into the power adapter.

Step 3: Connect the power adapter to a power source

Insert the power adapter into a power outlet or a USB port on your computer. Ensure that the power adapter is securely connected to the power source.

Step 4: Monitor the charging process

Once everything is connected, you will see a small charging icon on the Apple Pencil’s LED light. The LED light will turn on when the Pencil is charging and turn off when it is fully charged. The charging process may take up to an hour or more, depending on the battery level of the Pencil.

Step 5: Disconnect the Apple Pencil

When the LED light turns off, indicating that the Apple Pencil is fully charged, you can safely disconnect it from the iPad and the power source.

By following these simple steps, you can easily charge your Apple Pencil first generation and ensure that it is always ready for use. Remember to keep the Lightning to USB cable and power adapter in a safe place for future charging needs.

It’s also worth noting that Apple Pencil first generation is compatible with the iPad Pro, iPad Air (3rd generation), and iPad (5th generation) with the Smart Connector. However, the charging process remains the same regardless of the iPad model you are using.

Happy charging!
