The article on earlier post has been ongoing for quite some time or is it just because ppl have been alerted to it

[kenbos] 27/11/2019 14:09

Seems to be quite a bit more share activity on here of late I've not seen any reason why ? Has anyone else ?

[a.fewbob] 26/11/2019 23:46

I think that IKA might surprise the market and unveil a large scale solid state battery sooner than we think!

"Bit annoying"
Understatement of the year.

[global nomad] 21/11/2019 23:01

PS, if it follows the behaviour of ITM and AFC then all will come good soonenough (pun intended)

[global nomad] 21/11/2019 23:00

been invested here a long time but it is somewhat in the background of my portfolio

just watched this video on solid state batteries, bit annoying but was surprised by the mention of ilika....around 10:14

Wind turbines is the future,numbers at this point are always increasing,where they are only one part of this companies products.Do you own any shares here ,if not why.

[horneblower] 21/11/2019 08:09

Did you notice that he went from solid state Li-ion batteries having 2.5 times the storage density of a standard Li-ion battery to the conclusion that they will be able to power cars to 600 miles on a single charge.
This is not a logical progression.
There are none so blind...

No doubt it will happen eventually but not for several years.

Also, none of the tech belongs to IKA!

[a.fewbob] 20/11/2019 22:07

Their is every chance IKA will only get a small part of a massive market and that they will remain niche.

But that’s still huge for such a tiny company.

[a.fewbob] 20/11/2019 22:05

Yep, Toyota

[a.fewbob] 20/11/2019 22:02

Horn blower,


Solid state will me massive!!!!!!

How can you be so short sighted??

Found this on Solid state, they mention a few companies including IKA!!

Interestingly, they also mention Toyota separately, and say that they are rumoured to be making a massive announcement on solid state in 2020.

Are they not working with Ilika?!?!?!?

Wind turbines is the future,numbers at this point are always increasing,where as they are only one part of this companies products.Do you own any shares here ,if not why.

That's true, and I would be enthusiastic too if the company had shown any ability to go out and get sales. In the past they have shown no such ability. They are academics and accountants and their strengths are mainly applied to filling out grant applications.

Apart from that, their tech is never going to be scalable. Solid state is inherently small scale.

[a.fewbob] 19/11/2019 22:21

Wind turbine blade sensors is just one application.

[supernumerary] 19/11/2019 21:45

gary - that's nice, but the numbers must be minuscule. How many turbines per year? How many blades? How many sensors per blade? What price per battery? What margin?

Multiply them all out, and the total would make a nice Christmas stocking filler, but nothing like enough to sustain a business. They need to be selling batteries of that size in the millions per annum to make an impact on the bottom line.

yeah dream on

In November 2017, Ilika announced a partnership to deploy Stereax powered devices for the condition monitoring of wind turbines with Titan Wind Energy, the largest manufacturer of wind turbines in China and the 4th largest globally. Beta prototype devices are nearing readiness for trial deployment.Hopefully we will be getting a rns that Beta prototype devices have been deployed,that will be 2 years of hard work by the Ilika team, that when deployed is a game changer as Titan wind Energy are massive.

[a.fewbob] 18/11/2019 17:58

As I said above, if they have a prototype by 2025 I’d be over the moon!!

Have you any idea how massive that would be?

In the meantime, they have a market ready product which has many applications.

[horneblower] 18/11/2019 17:57

They are pretty much exactly where they were three years ago...That's why!

[a.fewbob] 18/11/2019 17:55

Why?

Because they haven’t in the space of three years developed a consumer focused cheap solid state lithium ion battery suitable for mobile phones laptops and cars?

Bloody hell, if only it was that simple!!!!!!

[horneblower] 18/11/2019 09:53

"They obviously believe they have good tech."
That is a charitable way of understanding the situation.
However, that does not mean they are not deluding themselves, as they seem to have been for the past three years (along with shareholders, backers, bankers, government quangos etc).
