It's time to hit the sack and your cell phone needs charging. The USB plugs are way down there at the foot of the bed. Where did I put that cable?
The answer: You need a permanent powered cell phone mount right inside the door of your 'Little Guy' always ready to use!
I have a 3D printer and decided to print out a custom mount for my phone. After looking online it looks like almost any car mount could be modified to do the same thing.

| Here is the 3D printed version I used. |
 |
| Making sure the phone fits. |
 |
| Made a hole large enough for the USB plug to come through. |
 |
| I decided the best place for the mount was right inside the door. After cleaning and drying the wall thoroughly I used double sided sticky tape to affix the mount to the wall. |
 |
| I put the mount low so the USB cord can travel straight down and not be in the way. The cord is going to be tucked between the mattress and the wall all the way back to the USB plugs at the foot of the bed. |
 |
| Watch that window frame! Remember to place your mount so you have plenty of room to drop the phone down into the cradle from above. |
 |
| The 10 foot cord leaves some slack that can be pulled up if you want to lay in bed and use the phone while it charges. |
 |
| Your source of USB power is now conveniently brought to the door where you can use it! |
