I suppose you could have a bit battery and a cable to your device which
would be safer than a mains connection of any kind.

Toothbrushes already use an inductive charger - but a proprietary one
that typically has plastic "pin" that fits into the body of the brush. I
don't think the inefficiencies are going to make much difference overall.
