Heres how solar storms and geomagnetic unrest leads to lithium battery fires including Tesla 18650 cells.

Link #1 shows how solar storms lead to electric currents in soil and how those currents create magnetic fields.

Link #2 shows a real world measurement of electromagnetic fields at the surface during a solar storm. This is an amatuer measurement in England April 18th, same weekend several Teslas crashed and caught fire.

Link #3 This link shows how external magnetic fields heat up/overcharge/over-discharge 18650 lithium battery cells.

Link #4 is the scientific study where 18650 battery cells, amoungst others, were exposed to EMFs to induce thermal runaway.

The electromagnetic field heats up locally the internal layers of the cell.

Link #5 shows that surface electromagnetic fields are present on the nightside of the earth when there are auroras present during space weather events.

These new observations allowed scientists to directly link specific intense disturbances in the magnetosphere to the magnetic response on the ground. A paper on these findings was published in Nature Physics on Sept. 12, 2016.

When the solar wind’s magnetic field turns southward, the dayside, or sun-facing side, of the magnetosphere contracts inward. The back end, called the magnetotail, stretches out like a rubber band. When the stretched magnetotail finally snaps back, it starts to vibrate, much like a spring moving back and forth. Bright auroras can occur during this stage of the substorm.

When the magnetotails snaps back and vibrates this is what causes auroras & surface electromagnetic fields.
