Media reports reveal that Mr. Qian, the car owner, was wirelessly charging his phone on the car's built-in charging pad while driving. Meanwhile, he had placed another phone and a bag of face masks on a nearby regular panel. After a little over ten minutes, holes were discovered burned through the face masks. Moreover, the wireless charging pad itself had melted and sustained damage due to the intense heat. Experts have weighed in, suggesting that although the face masks didn't have direct contact with the charging pad, the metal strip embedded within them might have fallen within the magnetic field's range. This led to the magnetic field energy acting upon the metal strip, heating it up and subsequently igniting the face masks. The melted hole observed on the wireless charging pad could be attributed to the high temperature conducted by the metal strip or the overheating of the coil itself. Experts caution that when utilizing in-car wireless charging, items containing metal should be kept away from or not placed on the charging pad to avert similar mishaps.
