8. Does the Charging Spot cause the phone/battery to heat up while charging?
All chargers create some heat as they charge. Wall chargers, docks, and even portable power banks lose some energy in the form of heat. Wireless chargers are no different; chargers that have been through extensive efficiency testing will minimize the amount of energy wasted through heat, so it’s worth choosing a reputable brand. Belkin chargers offer additional safety protocols built in to the circuitry. These advanced chipsets will shut down if they detect excessive heat to protect you and your devices.
