Ilika Share Discussion Threads

The intermediate level batteries for phones, cameras, hand tools etc seem to have disappeared completely, apart from some legacy photos on the website.

As I understand it they were planning to use a small form factor Goliath for such applications. Has anyone heard more about this development, or has it been shelved in favour of automotive?

You are wrong I will.

We enjoyed 2 whole days of this thread being positive (with the added bonus of witnessing R getting dry bummed). The increase in share price isn’t due to any ramping. The share is now known to a greater audience & EV & other green energy projects are now big investment areas. The interest in these is growing by the day.. but you already know this. I could write a book refuting just about every negative comment that has been made here - Simply by stating common-sense points and drawing on clear statements the company has repeatedly made. Can’t be bothered though & I don’t actually think negative posters believe what they themselves write. If you’ve sold out, be happy with your profit. A bit of dignity & good wishes to those who remain… too much to ask for?

Horneblower,
Hopefully we will know more next week.

Rogk, Ive been heavily invested in Ilika since 15,12,2014, I also went to their Investor open day last year, Im not trying to ramp up the price but Im very happy where it is, I have emailed Ilika regarding Goliath patents, so stick that in your pipe!

[horneblower] 07/1/2021 14:37

Rogk, Yes and as far as I can find out, IKA has said nothing of consequence regarding Goliath for about a year now, but I might have missed something!

They have become more and more secretive. Their website gets glossier but has less info on it.

Sadly, my conclusion is they have not cracked the problems with Goliath, particularly with dendrites. Secrecy is all very well but to me it raises suspicion.

They really need to show some practical results on Goliath...even if it is work in progress.

[horneblower] 07/1/2021 14:25

duw...We know that. It's about Stereax.
Anything specific to Goliath?

[duwendag] 07/1/2021 14:22

I think this covers it but I may contact the Co to verify it.
Building Ilika's intellectual property portfolio in solid-state batteries has continued to be a focus this year. Ilika believes its patents ring fence and protect critical IP to avoid competitors working around a single patent. Ilika now maintains a portfolio of 15 patent families in solid-state batteries, of which three are jointly owned with Toyota. This portfolio includes 20 granted patents.

[horneblower] 07/1/2021 13:38

duwendag: That's for Stereax: a completely different process and only suitable for tiny, low-power batteries.
What we need is is any patents around Goliath. Can you find any?

Plus on the 8th Oct 2019 from Share Cast mag.
The AIM-traded firm said that over the past two years, it had seen “substantial progress” in the prosecution of that aspect of its patent portfolio at the patent offices of China, Korea, Japan, the United States, and Europe.

As a result, three of its patent families were said to be “significantly stronger”, with eight related filings going to grant and notices of allowance being issued for a further four.

It said those patent filings protected the methods used to make its thin-film solid-state Stereax cells.

The Stereax roadmap began with miniature batteries designed to meet the demands of powering wireless devices, and had since been extended to include large format cells for automotive.

“Protecting Ilika's know-how relating to solid-state batteries is key to our ability to grow our business,” said Ilika chief executive officer Graeme Purdy.

“We take this very seriously and employ a vice-president of intellectual property, who is seconded to the company from an international firm of patent lawyers to manage this process for us.

“This strategy is validated by the continued stream of granted patents reinforcing our position.”

Rogk, what's this then. Ilika announces that two of its British patent applications, jointly filed with Toyota Motor Company on 21st July 2011, were formally granted on 23rd April 2014.These two patents cover the vapour deposition processes used in producing solid state batteries directly from the elements. They therefore represent a key part of the family of patents and pending applications that cover the complete methodology for producing stacked solid-state cell batteries, a world first and key technological breakthrough on the road to commercial solidstate devices, announced by the Company on 9th January 2014. These particular joint filings resulted from collaborative work undertaken by Ilika and Toyota, which commenced in 2008.

You can check all my previous posts. Unlike most on here, I am a LT investor managing my SIPP. No interest in day trading/ramping etc. IKA is a long term hold - well positioned in medtech, consumer electronics and hopefully EVs to come. You seem to be annoying everyone

[mauricemonkey] 07/1/2021 12:43

Ilika research EV batteries with their partners. Have you checked to see if they’ve been filed under the partners name?
Off you go, there’s a good boy.

Korea's SK investing $1.5bn into Plug Power in US, demonstrates there is big money out there looking to invest in the technology of the future. We will know more about IKA plans in a weeks time

[mauricemonkey] 06/1/2021 15:00

I guess we ran out of sellers?

Movement, outside.
Silence, inside.
Restless trader, spread your wings as the day begins.

It's just the share rising
It's just a flag forming
It's shining
It's just a flag forming
Learn to love your secret life, your still calm and gentle life.
Your resolution comes too fast, now the night is past.

It's just the share rising.
It's just a flag forming
It's shining.
It's just the share rising.
Smiling, gliding, breathless, you're riding.
Love is just a state of mind that we leave behind.
It's just the price rising
It's just a flag forming.
It's shining.

This stock is all over the place - 25% jump today.

[phil2003] 06/1/2021 09:36

Don’t be too hard on old RogK.. he’s one of the 75% of retail cannon fodder that make it work for the 25% of us 😊 why anyone would try and ‘trade’ anything with this spread bemuses me (vs. super liquidity stateside)..but anyway thanks Roger, I’ll take your money
