Hi. Since last 6 months, my Apple Watch 9 has to be periodically rebooted to properly recharge again. Using original chord, typically it charges correctly for 7-10 days during night. What happens then is to find it at morning at around 50% because recharge stopped during night at a random number (last time was 70%). Putting AW back on charge does not make any effect, charger is not detected and recharge doesn't start. Only way for recovering charging is an AW reboot.
Reinitiating the AW as new installation didn't help. Optimized charge is OFF. Firmware is updated to latest stable one. Hint?
thank you

What power brick do you use? Have another one to test? Do you have another charging puck/cable to test?
 
Once recharge is "disabled" even changing the charging cable AW refuses to charge until reboot. But I have another cable charger I use when travelling, I can swap it to see if fixes.
