Warning
If you are planning to run this 24/7, please make sure that your phone does not stay at 100% charge. Doing so may damage the battery and cause it to swell up, which could cause it to explode.
Some models include an option to only charge to 80%, make sure this is enabled where possible.
Note: running at a higher image quality may cause some phones to over heat, which can also damage the battery.
