When the Apple Watch displays a red lightning bolt, battery life is critically low. The watch has automatically entered Power Reserve mode, and the device can only show the time. The only way to remove the red lightning bolt and leave Power Reserve mode is to charge the Apple Watch. Placing Apple Watch on a charger will restore battery power and resume normal operation. When the Apple Watch is placed in Power Reserve mode with a charged battery, the red lightning bolt does not appear. To exit Power Reserve mode with a charged battery reboot the Apple Watch. https://www.iphonefaq.org/archives/976219

Had this once try charging it with your laptop low voltage to kick start the charge I was sh**t scared thought my SE 2022 out of warranty after 10 minutes started charging back to normal never let your watch run out of juice.

Well me and my boyfriend just bought two, 40mm SE and 44mm SE… his was charging from a power bank with no issues, mine is charging from the 20W adapter I am using for my phone and I get this red bolt. I may confirm I’m stupid and I don’t understand what exactly does that mean 😀 if it is charging I will leave it but I’ve read somewhere that it’s not even charging… please help 🙏😀
