DIY!!
This video shows three ways that you can build cheap but effective Faraday cages. These could help you protect important electronics from an EMP (electromagnetic pulse).

GREAT VIDEO …I would only add a few moisture absorbers inside those containers!
I made the trash can farday cage a couple of years ago. However, since then I got the Delta Pro & Panels, and what a great idea you presented here! Turning their boxes into faraday Cages, WOW! Excellent & way more affordable than what’s on the market for larger equipment. Thank you so much!!!❤
Built my first metal trashcan Faraday cage and wrapped my solar panel boxes in 4 layers of heavy duty aluminum foil, was a good day. Going for some ammo boxes tomorrow and maybe one more trashcan and get all my solar battery stuff, cell phones, I even have an Android tablet and old phone loaded up with Survival PDFs/Books, gotta keep all that from frying! THANKS for this Video, exactly what I and I suspect the country needs, with some much crazy ramping up these days, just hope our luck holds, not sure I’m ready for what comes next!

NOTE. Power tool batteries have circuit boards in them. If the board gets damaged the battery is trashed. So you may want to put several tool batteries in there.
Brother, it sounds like what I really need is an EMP Shed! Cool video, thanks. God bless y’all!
Part of my homesteading setup I plan to turn my old barn into a massive Faraday cage so I can park my truck inside it.
Just make a faraday closet, shed or room big enough to store all your electonics and equipment. You can use the items regularly and store them after use.
Hey, JR! I’m a 54yo woman, trying to prepare to take care of my elderly mother and myself when SHTF. I followed your instructions for the metal can faraday cage. It works perfectly!!! I put my phone in it & closed it up. It went straight to vm when a friend tried to call me. My solar generator fits great in it, along with many other things. I’ve made up a smaller can for quick access to LED flashlights and lanterns in the event of a power outage. Thank you so much!!!! If I can do this, ANYONE can!
Never thought I’d be here, but the conversation keeps getting brought up more and more now a days

my family already thinks im bonkers for prepping. now having trashcan emp’s full of equipment makes them think ive completely lost my mind. it aint easy living in a higher level of comprehension.
You are not cheap. YOU ARE INTELLIGENT!! 🙂
You could use a 55 gallon metal drum with a locking lid. Where I live in the Beaumont TX area you can get them for $25.00. They are almost new. Give a lot of space and I use mine as a Faraday cage.
