Put your charging pad somewhere you always set your phone down anyway, like next to your keys. It turns into such a habit you stop even thinking about battery percentage. I went from always having a dead phone to it just always being topped up without the cable mess.

Remember that risk with wet clay? A friend of mine learned the hard way. He used it to cool a knife blade unevenly. The steam pocketed and left a crack he only saw after polishing. Thing snapped during a stress test. Air blast is definitely safer.
