Dunno, i ran my blog for two years from my old iphone 4. It was fine.

Keeping fans connected to power 24/7 is a fire hazard, too.

Running electricity through wood, arguably insane.

You can use a smart plug that turns it on/off. Or even a mechanical outlet timer.

Or set the phone to never charge above 80%

Thta said, keeping it on charger for months will eventually swell its battery, true.

Doesn't this depend on the kind of phone and battery?

you should drop the battery.. see this project https://research.google/blog/a-low-carbon-computing-platform...
