Happy Thanksgiving to all forumites in the US. I’m thankful for all the insight and help shared on this site. Thank you.

Now for the problem. I’m on 5.1.1 and this happened twice so far. Watch is at 25% and then screen becomes totally black and unresponsive. Pressing the crown shows me the Charge your watch screen. I put the watch on charger and it reboots after couple minutes. I check charge and it shows 26%. Totally confused. My watch has been very reliable in the year that I’ve had it and never seen an issue like this. I suspect it might be a s/w bug rather than an actual battery issue.

Has anyone seen anything like this? Thanks for your help.
[doublepost=1542906667][/doublepost]Happened again, 2nd time in an hour. Will give it a good charge to 50% and then observe. I had many times when I ran it down to 5% before I charged so I know battery is good. Unless it somehow went bad in the last couple days.
