Does anyone know where Aptera will source their batteries? I'm hoping it's not LG considering their issues with dendrites and battery failure (fire). This has occurred in their in home solar/power backup batteries as well as with EVs with the Chevy Bolt and Tesla being prime examples.

In the following article from Cleantechnica.com it says: "The Bolt sources its pouch type cells from LG Chem, while the Tesla Model 3 uses cylindrical cells sourced from Panasonic. The pack construction, design, and cooling use distinctly different approaches, and the cell chemistries differ." The article is dated 2018 and I am sure LG is now also sourcing cells to Tesla. It looks like (no guarantee) the cylindrical cells that LG provides are Tesla cells.
