Vistra Fire and Teslas Burning in California: Is it a Wake-Up Call for Battery Storage Safety?
Lithium-Ion Batteries: How Risky are They?
Lithium-ion batteries are known for their efficiency and energy density. However, their chemical composition also poses significant risks. They contain volatile electrolytes which when exposed to high temperatures or physical damage can release flammable gases.
Overcharging or overheating can lead to thermal runaway, a chain reaction of uncontrolled heating that can cause fires or explosions. When exposed to high temperatures or physical damage, the volatile electrolytes in these batteries release flammable gases.
The environmental challenges are equally concerning. Burnt-out lithium-ion batteries complicate waste management efforts, as they require specialized handling to prevent further contamination.
Even after a fire is extinguished, the risk of reignition persists. Signs of potential failure, such as bulging, cracking, or venting gases, require immediate attention to prevent catastrophic outcomes.

========================================
How does EMF cause lithium batteries to experience thermal runaway and thus spontaneously combust? One of two main ways:
#1 - Overcharge/Discharge
With various impressed external magnetic field intensities an effect was noticed on the charge and discharge curves as well as the charge and mass concentrations within the batteries. With the two-dimensional model starting from 0mT and going to 1mT had the effect of discharging the battery faster and charging the battery faster. With the two-dimensional model starting from 1mT and going to -1mT had the effect of charging the battery faster. In either case an effect on the various characteristics of the battery were studied. With the experiments conducted on the two types of batteries the effect was more profound than subtle. Discharge times were twice as fast and charge times were equally
affected. With the smaller batteries they all generally charged faster under the presence of a magnetic field due to more uniform penetration. In the presence of the field they also discharged faster. The larger batteries would not see the same uniform penetration because only a small area of the battery sees the center of the coil it is placed on
In this dissertation, they found that external magnetic fields significantly increased charge and discharge rates in individual lithium battery cells; like shown in the following image. They also found that smaller batteries were impacted to a greater degree than larger ones. This is likely a reason Tesla is switching to larger battery cells in addition to employing magnetic attenuating honeycomb sandwich battery pack.

Cellphone lithium batteries will never cause the level of destruction of battery storage facilities, like seen recently near San Francisco, CA, but they can burn down your home. Something to keep in mind especially if you like to keep your phone on/near your bed. Honestly devices with lithium batteries should be placed in a container with at least a good fire alarm or even fire suppression system. These devices will increase in spontaneously combusting as the earths magnetic field continues to weaken and it becomes more chaotic which will expose us and our technology to odd electromagnetic anomalies. I believe this is why there has been an increase in large passenger planes malfunctioning in addition to causing Teslas to go out of control/spontaneously combust.

While yes lithium batteries increase toxicity remaining from the LA fires, what should have been the headline, is how these batteries aided the LA fires... Lithium batteries are like little bombs spread out because the tech is so heavily used and so unstable. Heck it wasnt long ago some lithium powder spontaneously combusted in Florida.

'UNBELIEVABLE AND SCARY': Lithium-ion battery from vape pen sparks house fire in Lake Worth
Marc Theaman was working in his office at a house they were renting in Lake Worth on Monday at about noon when the patio suddenly caught fire.
Theaman quickly ran downstairs and panicked when he saw flames and heavy smoke coming from the backyard into the dining area.
Ogilbee was told by Palm Beach County Fire Rescue officials that a vape pen’s lithium-ion batteries sparked the flames.
WPTV reported in November that Palm Beach County Fire Rescue was warning about a rise in lithium-ion battery fires.
“Just a small device could cause this type of damage, which is unbelievable and scary,” stated Ogilbee.
There are more small devices than large devices, maybe even more than phones, so they will be more common. Still, this can happen to any device with lithium batteries in them from vapes, cellphones, laptops, E-bikes, EVs/hybrids, to battery storage facilities.

Apple’s Sales Struggle
By: TrendSpider | January 14, 2025
Key Takeaways:
• Sales Drop: iPhone sales fell 5%, with market share at 18% in Q4 2024.
• AI Delays: iPhone 16 shipments dropped 10%-12% due to unmet AI expectations.
• Premium Demand: Pro models excelled in China; emerging markets showed growth.
Apple Faces iPhone Sales Decline Amid AI Delays and Growing Competition
AAPL (Apple Inc.) reported a 5% drop in global iPhone sales for Q4 2024, with shipments falling to 76.9 million units, marking a 4.1% decline compared to the same period in 2023. Apple’s market share dropped to 18%, down from 19% the previous year, as the global smartphone market grew by 4%. This decline reflects increasing competition, particularly from Chinese brands like Xiaomi and Vivo, which collectively captured a record-breaking 56% of global smartphone shipments in Q4 2024, according to IDC. These companies are advancing their AI tools, intensifying Apple’s challenge in maintaining its market position.
Challenges and Opportunities
Apple’s AI rollout delays have been a key factor in the sales decline. The Apple Intelligence suite, which is only available in English and dependent on the latest hardware, has not yet launched in China, one of Apple’s largest markets. This has impacted the appeal of the iPhone 16 series, which saw underwhelming demand due to unmet expectations surrounding AI features.
Despite these setbacks, Apple saw an increase in demand for its Pro and Pro Max models, which accounted for more than 50% of all shipments in China. Additionally, emerging markets like Latin America and India showed promising growth, partially offsetting the declines in more competitive regions. To regain momentum, Apple will need to overcome its AI limitations and strengthen its product differentiation, particularly in response to growing competition. In total, Apple sold 232.1 million iPhones in 2024, reflecting a slight 2% decrease compared to the previous year.

$AAPL has been trending above the weekly market bias since May 2024...
By: Peter DiCarlo | January 13, 2025
• $AAPL has been trending above the weekly market bias since May 2024. As long as it continues to make higher lows, we're looking at a bullish structure.
The market bias is also expanding and showing bright green, indicating this is typically the lowest level Wall Street allows before the stock finds its footing.
For those considering a more aggressive approach, you could focus on the daily chart, waiting for the BX to turn green or make a higher low. Since this hasn't happened yet, patience is key.
For even more confirmation, wait for the BX on the weekly chart to make a higher low.

EVs are lithium bombs waiting to go off.
So are smart phones, I'm keeping my land line as backup!
This is true, but the higher voltage and thus larger EM field of EVs make them more dangerous than cellphones and more likely to spontaneously combust due to things like dendrite buildup.
Check out the growing list of major airliners experiencing malfunctions since the end of 2024. EM radiation is causing technical glitches and malfunctions all over the place.

Fire breaks out in Tesla battery storage facility in Tilburg
A fire broke out Saturday at a Tesla battery storage facility in Tilburg, according to local authorities. The fire, which involved smoldering batteries, was quickly brought under control by the fire department.
Crews moved the batteries outside and placed them in a water-filled container, known as a "dunk tank," to cool them down. The fire was contained within an hour.
The fire occurred in a storage warehouse located on Asteriastraat in the Vossenberg industrial area. The building was evacuated, and the 50 employees inside were safely accounted for, with no injuries reported. The warehouse's sprinkler system helped prevent the fire from spreading further within the building.
At this time, the cause of the fire remains unknown, and an investigation is underway.
Lithium batteries are dangerous regardless of what they are used in whether cellphones, mopeds, EVs, or even battery storage facilities. EM radiation causes lithium batteries to spontaneously combusting.

Might as well crash right through previous stock, splits, and bring this right down to sub pennies!!🤣🤣
So when it drops $15 on a correction or maybe even $30, is that when you're going to come out and say you told me so ...that was your pump crashing??

5 injured after lithium fire breaks out at L3Harris aerospace facility in Orlando
Five people were injured Thursday morning in Orlando after lithium powder caused a fire to break out at an L3Harris aerospace facility, fire officials announced.
According to Orlando Fire Chief Charlie Salazar, the call to the 7600 block of Municipal Drive came in around 8:20 a.m. and prompted several Orlando Fire Department crews to respond, including hazmat, arson and bomb crews.
The fire broke out inside Aerojet Rocketdyne, a company that designs and produces sophisticated ballistic missile targets and undersea propulsion technology.
Assistant Orlando Fire Chief Walter Lewis said the response to the fire was large because of its severity. The lithium ignition is toxic and cannot be suppressed using water, Lewis explained.
Funny thing here is this wasnt even a battery that spontaneously combusted, but lithium powder. The article doesnt indicate whether or not the lithium powder was pure lithium or had anything added to it. So what caused the powder to catch fire? Hutchison Effect since Lithium is a metal? Even the powder is susceptible to spontaneously combusting making it dangerous and toxic it seems.
https://www.wesh.com/article/orlando-hazmat-fire-5-injured-municipal-drive/63236734
========================================
Section 2 - Hutchison Effect & Teslas Whompy Wheel issue
Jain is one of tens of thousands of Tesla owners who have experienced premature failures of suspension or steering parts, according to a Reuters review of thousands of Tesla documents. The chronic failures, many in relatively new vehicles, date back at least seven years and stretch across Tesla’s model lineup and across the globe, from China to the United States to Europe, according to the records and interviews with more than 20 customers and nine former Tesla managers or service technicians.
https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-musk-steering-suspension/
The exact cause of the Hutchison Effect is unknown in public spheres as it is classified under national security. However the most likely culprit seems to be a combination of electromagnetic sources coming together in a way to change the makeup of metals leading to their rusting, softening, fracturing, complete breaking, even dustification. Keep in mind the degree of metal materials that are within our buildings and infrastructure...even in concrete. Maybe this is why we are seeing an increase in building and bridge collapses?

• $AAPL has been in a months-long compression phase, forming equal highs at a key liquidity zone.
Each sell-off has been met with higher lows, signaling bullish compression. This is a classic setup where price consolidates before breaking out into higher highs.
While the ideal entry would have been at market buyers’ support, the weekly BX Trender confirmation green suggests price is gearing up for a breakout.
With December approaching—a historically strong month—it appears Apple is preparing for a move higher.

Succession again becomes a concern at Apple with 63-year-old Tim Cook older than many other CEOs
Monday, December 9, 2024 3:03 pm
7 Comments
Apple faces a potential leadership challenge as CEO Tim Cook approaches retirement. The company lacks a clear, immediate successor, creating uncertainty about future leadership. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman suggests that finding a suitable replacement could prove to be a complex task for Apple.
Ananya Gairola for Benzinga:
“You look down the list of executives, and it’s really not clear how this all pans out,” Gurman said, adding, “You wonder why there hasn’t been more transparency and exposure for the next leaders. It raises a broader question: Does Apple have a comprehensive and deliberate set of succession plans?”
According to the report, there’s no basis to presume that a leadership transition is imminent. While Cook may be older than the CEOs of other tech companies leading the S&P 500, he is far from being the oldest executive at the helm of a major corporation.
