Guilty as charged (get it? :). I'm an overnight wireless charger that has a
 100% battery every morning. Been doing it for 4+ years now. I do it to
 start the day with a full 100% phone so it won't run out early on a busy
 day. So far after 4+ years there's no NOTICIBLE battery problems for my
 use. YMMV of course...

>still charging even after it's reached 100%.

My wireless charger quits charging when the phone reaches full charge. You
 can tell when the charging light goes out...
