A friend in Uxbridge had his E-car take out his garage. I want to say it wasn't a Tesla, but I'm not sure. I hear Fast chargers are to blame for most ev fires.

Had an old iPhone 3s years ago which got put in a desk drawer after upgrading to a new phone. Couple of years later digging in that lower drawer for something I see the phone and the battery had swollen up to about an inch thick which actually had popped the case apart ! Just lucky something didn't puncture that battery as that is all it takes for them to go into thermal runaway.
Apparently , like you suggest , one of the biggest problems is using the wrong charger . There have been several serious fires in this area because of lithium batteries going rogue.
I had a samsung do that. I guess the lesson here is ... Don't save old phones
hmmmm..... Need to dig a little here... I have 3 of them around somewhere....
