Why does the Apple Watch ultra discharge while charging?

Has anyone had this problem?
 
Depends on the wattage charger you are using. If the display is on and little CPU is working, you can use more power than what the wireless puck is delivering.

Are you saying that the battery percentage is going down when charging?

Since the watch is on when you are charging it is obviously using power.

Most likely it’s because the watch is using some of level of power as certain things are always active and the charger your using isn’t providing enough power to prevent the battery from draining.
