Alleged Adelaide bomb maker Aaron Ellis will not be released on home detention bail after the Supreme Court overruled a decision by a magistrate.

Key points: The Supreme Court revoked Aaron Ellis' home detention bail

The Supreme Court revoked Aaron Ellis' home detention bail Prosecutors said Mr Ellis had 60 images of anti-Islamic ideology on his phone

Prosecutors said Mr Ellis had 60 images of anti-Islamic ideology on his phone Mr Ellis was charged with possession and manufacture of explosives

The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) asked the Supreme Court to review Magistrate Gary Gumpl's decision to grant Aaron Ellis home detention bail last week.

Mr Ellis' defence lawyer argued he was not a threat and that he would allow police to perform routine checks on his home and abstain from using the internet if his home detention bail was upheld.

However, Justice Martin Hinton agreed with the DPP, and revoked his bail because the allegations levelled against him were too serious.

"These allegations are particularly serious," he said.

Mr Ellis, 43, was arrested last month after police allegedly found highly volatile explosives in his shed.

He was charged with possession and manufacture of explosives.

Court told Mr Ellis had anti-Islamic ideology on his phone

In their opposition to bail, prosecutors said Mr Ellis had 60 images on his phone relating to anti-Islamic ideology.

"Also located on his phone were messages that identified clear and knowledgeable involvement in the possession, consumption and supply, and likely manufacture of illicit drugs," prosecutor Sergeant Carol Gallie said.

"There is evidence of onselling his prescriptions, pharmacy shopping for specific medication and extraction of pseudoephedrine from medication."

The court heard his phone also contained images of him making explosives and pipe bombs in 2017.

It heard 10 years prior he had called police threatening to take his own life.

Magistrate Gumpl said there was no evidence Mr Ellis intended to harm anyone, and granted him bail on home detention.

During the original bail application, defence lawyer Stacey Carter said the images allegedly found on her client's phone were just "research" because he was "curious", and he did not pose a risk to the community.

"We are dealing with a man who is unemployed, he is on receipt of Centrelink benefits, he's bored, he's doing some research," she said.

"I'm sure there's hundreds of thousands of computers of people watching what's occurred around the world.
