Why is the wireless charging pad condensating

Interesting. I wonder if the armrest charging pad overheats (in the SLE I test drove) bc I was thinking of adding that to my already slotted armrest

My 2018 doesn't overheat the phone when charging. However I live in Minnesota, maybe a problem down south.

April is the least humid month for a lot of areas in Florida.

The condensation is because of cold and humidity at the same time. If air conditioner was run all the time, it would keep the inside fairly dry and condensation would not occur.

 

If it's a bunch of short drives and starts, then there's a good chance condensation will happen since the air inside the cabin would be humid and the air conditioner would be off while the charging pad would still be pretty cool from the recent drive.

Noticed this AC line today when installing an autostop eliminator. I wish they ran it to the cup holder to keep drinks cold!
