To the author : Thank you

Thank you for having linked to an enlightening article about wireless charging. I knew it was inefficient already (I often link to this video when encountering someone blathering excitedly about it), but I did not know (or remember) that putting the phone just slightly wrong on the pad could double the energy cost.

Given how careless most people seem to be when it comes to how they put their phone down, I'm guessing that they're all costing double the charge.

Wireless charging has to be the worst, most inefficient way anyone could have invented to charge a phone. I really hope you will link to that article every time you write about it.
