Scotty of strange parts adds wireless charging to an old iPhone

I was excited to get wireless charging until I got a phone that supported wireless charging and realized I had to leave it laying on a charging pad (i’d never really thought about it in detail). If there is one rule my phone follows is that the battery will run out when I need to use my phone. If I need to use my phone while it is charging then a cable seems more convenient than a pad. I could use it only at a night but then my night stand gets filled up with this pad all the time versus just plugging in the cable at night.

I could see this being convenient if it was built into desks and tables so you could place you phone anywhere on the surface and get a bit of charge on the fly. But really just wish Tesla (the man not the company) had figured out the whole electricity over the air idea. Day dreaming I know.

Why not both? :slight_smile:

it was posted early today but I wasn’t awake enough to comment then.
