Inductive charging is quickly becoming one of those clutch features that everyone wants in their next smartphone. Since a few phones - like the Nexus 4 and HTC Droid DNA - already have the feature, one crafty reddit user decided that he wanted to install his wireless charger inside of his desk. Neat, right? He also took a few snapshots along the way, highlighting just how easy the process was.

We're hearing reports that the charger used in the project - the Nokia DT-900 - has issues with the Nexus 4. If you plan on trying this or something similar, you'll probably want to spring for a different charger.
Of course, his particular desk - which came from Ikea, according to the thread - happened to be hollow, which is what made the process so simple. If you have a solid wood desk, installing a wireless charging pad into your desk will be a very different - and likely much more difficult - beast. Still, if you're willing to get your hands dirty, it's a very cool and useful project nonetheless. You can find the link to the exact charger used in the video, as well as to the reddit thread, down below.
