i spoke about how critical battery technology is with author of "the powerhouse," steve levine, one of the foremost voices of batteries. >> the battery was invented in 1799. the architecture has not changed much since then. so much of that time we weren't really trying to create the super battery for the last few years we have been. the question today is which way is apple going? is it going the gm route? will it try to create the super battery? or is it going to go the tesla route, go off the shelf? >> among the interesting things about apple going into the business, is apple the business that it's typically relied on outsource component manufacturer taking the best that other companies are making, the best chips made by qualcomm or -- taking the best batteries made by a panasonic and assembling them together in a way the software performs the magic. they've changed it a bit. do you get a sense that they are going to go for their own design and even maybe manufacture the battery? >> the latter part we don't know whether they will manufacture. but yes the signs are that they are trying

steve levine has written this great book -- run out and buy it. i am so psyched to have you on today of all days. what does this mean? what is the advance from a123 -- it was backed by big federal government grants and president obama spoke at an a123 factory -- the company nearly went bankrupt and now they are back and suing? >> a123 in 2009 was the largest ipo of the year. it was the darling of the battery industry and it and it -- ended up failing in 2012 but it still has the technology. cory: it was the twitter of 2009. it was the hot ipo. >> there was a lot of buzz about it. it still has the stuff, it still has the battery it invented in the scientists who engineered it. that is the key there. it's one thing happening -- it's another thing being able to optimize it and stick it into a battery and scale it up in a way that works. apple will be looking for that. cory: when we compare the different cases -- tesla -- in your book, there's this tale and you would not think it's so fascinating -- but they end up fighting with each other. you explai

>> we had this author on the show yesterday, steve levine talking about the battle to create a better battery and the automaker's desire to create a better battery. there's a fascinating book with a surprisingly a lot of drama around it. one of the takeaways is a company like gm and ford and others in detroit are real technology companies that have spent a lot of time and money trying to invent better ways to make a battery, for example, can apple really compete with the kind of r&d that those guys have already gotten into in the materials science they have dug into for many years? >> they probably can't because they have the money to do it and they have gone to a whole bunch of battery suppliers looking for the best chemistries. they're already using lithium-ion in their consumer electronics devices. they certainly got that expertise. it is not their core competency to develop the better battery although they've got r&d there. they are familiar with the space. automakers rely heavily on their suppliers for advances there. with the automakers having basically cooperative r&d with the
