Nambo just to make sure we are talking about the same IPO:

As for real info on the tech , unfortunately prospects & the likes not out yet , so if we are talking about the same IPO then i have to say that is the only link i have found thus far & the quote above is the reason word is getting around it's a battery.
Maybe it's a case of me reading over it to fast , so will check it out again when i get a sec , but the one thing that's clear in batteries is the anode seems to be easily changeable as opposed to the cathode which is always Li.
I would post each individual battery but i just got a tone of work on at the mo but you can see in this link :

Li cathode always the same , anode always deferent depending on use.
I'm not saying silicon will take over , my point was more that i would feel safer at the moment in having a company exposed to a few commodities rather then just graphite.
In saying that , FGR look to be working on a amazing graphite battery tech ..
