Are you aware of any issues in using the charging puck for the S4 with a S8 watch?
Thanks
 
You won't get fast charge.

Thanks. But surely this depends on the actual charger rather than the Puck.
Apple doesn’t give a charger anyway, but they have given me a new Puck.

EDIT: I see your point though. Apple refers to the new Puck as a ’Fast Charger’ And the old one just as a ‘Charger’
 
Ha ha, yeah you'd think so, but no, apparently it's the circuity in the puck that enables the fast charging (in concert with the circuity in the watch). You do need to ensure sufficient current from the charger too of course.
 
I even put my Ultra on my old S0 pick, charges just fine overnight, but, no fast charging of course which is fine by me for when I’m home
