    No charging after 8.3 upgrade

    Anyone else experiencing charging issues? I have a Series 6 I keep updated and have never had an issue. After the 8.3 update, my watch no longer charges using a third-party puck. Charges fine with Apple-supplied puck. Is it possible Apple added code to disable third-party chargers?
