  1. Musk put a lot of people in harms way pretending as a con he is that he developed a a battery worthy of storing such amount of power in a lithium battery. Rather he did nothing of the sort. The con just said, okay let's use the same lithium batteries that were already known to not handle over time small wattage power of a lap top and cell phone. Which are notorious of thermal runaway. And that's storing milli amps of power. Not kiloamps or mega amps. So China is demonstrating these fire starters are all they are. Even prior to the craze in electric vehicles, little electric powered go carts using lithium batteries are known to thermal runaway. Along with golf carts that used lithium batteries. Most electric forklifts and the like that have been used for over 40 years, us chemical sulfuric acid batteries the same type of batteries used in regular combustion cars. All EV's are a danger, and only made worse with cheaper half baked manufacturers in China. But they're all horrible. Musk was a con. Pure and simple. TSLA does have fires not daily only because very few are actually sold, rather its more weekly. And of those who buy these things, they're mostly a trophy that's not used very often. So they're not exposed to the elements and subjected to potential battery damage... bumpy roads and the like. I suppose we can be thankful the con Musk didn't try to immediately push the better yet even more potentially dangerous hydrogen fuel cell systems... these are better in that they are way cheaper to produce not requiring the lithium or cobalt or nickel for the battery, but just a tiny amount of nickel and some other metals to produce some small rods to produce electricity from the hydrogen that turns into water. But hydrogen gas is explosive when mixed with atmospheric air, so a break thru in safety in both the tanks containing H2 (hydrogen) as well as safety in refueling the vehicle with hydrogen is needed... also another bonus on hydrogen fuel is that it's relatively cheap to produce via reverse the same electrolisis from H2O to H2. So the H2 gas stations can be produce at your home and right at the fueling station. And refueling H2 is as fast as normal fossil fuel vehicles. But again, a series of safety protocols need to figured out in order to keep re fueling staitons in becoming bombs. Lithium batteries to power things more than a lap top and cell phone were known not be commercially viable as the batteries are known to degrade substantially over time and any damage to the battery only makes it worse. So holding megawatts to killowatts of power is just turning those batteries into immense fire starters. Lithium burns and can even become explosive in the presents of water; just as all alkali metals: sodium, potassium, etc. does. Exception is H1... that is always bonds with another H1 atom so its H2. Hydrogen just becomes immensely explosive in the presents of a spark, any heat ignition form static electricity, if sufficient mixed with atmosphere air becomes a big boom. If H2 is not mixed and gets sufficient heat or flame or spark, it will create a torch immediately burning itself out, leaving steam of water and liquid water as it H2 burns in the air creating water H2O... but also lots of heat... and again mixed with N2 and O2 in the air, becomes explosive rather than a stream of H2 torch if burnt in concentration.
