Do you put a plugged in phone, electronic device or anything with moisture in it on the passenger seat?

Nope. It has an electric field detector in the passenger seat. These seats do not sense through weight but through the field. This is why cell phones (especially if plugged in), electronics or materials with moisture in them such as a gallon of milk will trigger the passenger seatbelt alarm. No mechanical, weight activated, switches were harmed in the making of this system.
