A charging device for charging a mobile device using a charging component includes a power connector and a thermal monitoring device. The power connector includes a housing having an end wall between a front and a rear. The housing includes power contact channels with power contacts received therein. The thermal monitoring device is coupled to the end wall of the housing. The thermal monitoring device includes a substrate, a mating connector mounted to the substrate, and a temperature sensor mounted to the substrate. The temperature sensor is electrically connected to the mating connector being positioned in close proximity with at least one of the power contacts such that the temperature sensor is in thermal communication with the power contact for monitoring the temperature of the power contact.
