EMP PROOF YOUR VEHICLE

Hey, Check this EMP Shield out! Come along as CURRIN1776 talks about EMP's and how to protect your modern vehicle.

[Battlbox]

Watch us learn more about EMP's and how to plan ahead.

I contacted EMP Shield, and asked one question. The answer to tha question was...no, we have never installed our device on a vehicle and tested it with an EMP generator. Wouldn't you think that would be the first thing they would do, and use the videos of the tests to increase their sales? Without testing, this thing is pie in the sky.

[bryandouglas]

I worked for a company briefly that specializes in EMP protection for the military. And from what the electric engineer said was that the more metal the EMP signal has to travel the less dangerous it becomes to the electronics and that even some modern vehicles would be ok even after an EMP attack it just depends on how much electronics the car has for example vehicles model years 96 and below would probably survive with minimal damage but the newer ones would be screwed.

[Ericjeep]

I would need to see this device tested. Until then, an older mechanical diesel pickup is the way to go.

Gentlemen, it’s 2023 and faraday cages have come along way. They now have faraday cage fabric that you can put up like a tent, they’ve got bags, and they even have faraday blankets. The easiest and best way to EMP proof your car/truck/bug out vehicle is to buy the faraday cage fabric and put it around your vehicle target points on top of putting the fabric as insulation in your garage. My uncle is not a prepper, but he went through a stage where he thought he needed to have some supplies on hand. he has some extra money and I was the first person in my family to go to college, falling in love with science. We built in his shop where he has his hunting/bug out area/man cave a EMP proof area. If you have the resources and the space, I would highly recommend that you build an EM proof area and leave all of your stuff in there so you know without a doubt that that area is protected. Whether you have a spare vehicle even if it’s a $500 vehicle or whatever you have out rigged as your battlewagon or hunting vehicle that you build a standalone garage/shop type area and put the EMP fabric. Now to reinforce if you want super peace of mind you can build into your shop a real faraday cage, then put the EMP blanket around the equipment. That is the most sensitive. So you’re doubling up you have all your sensitive electronics let’s say in a safe or whatever you can double up the EMP blanket over that with the faraday cage built around your shop and you have created a hard point that nothings going to get through that. I would just recommend doing that because anybody can make a faraday cage. It’s not that expensive and takes very little research on YouTube to Make.

I used to build EMP shielded electronics enclosures for Apache helicopters and other military equipment when I worked for an aerospace machine shop. Basically they were micro electronics totally enclosed in alloy boxes with total inner/outer gold plating. There were a lot of other stuff that made it a total package that worked.

[justincase]

Here's what's inside the box: A combination of varistors, capacitors, inductors, carbon blocks, avalanche diodes, fuses, relays... It's essentially a surge protector.

[urbansurvivor]

Thankyou. No ones ever explained it in straightforward terms. Appreciated

[wildwest]

I got 2 EMP proof vehicles....they're called horses.

[pewymcpewerson]

Remember the scene from War of the Worlds with Tom cruise where he drives into a mob with his minivan? That's exactly what will happen now that you're the 1 guy with a working vehicle. Besides that fuel pumps wont work either. Unless your up in the mountains by yourself vehicles will be dangerous, they'll give away your position and attract unwanted attention. Best bet is to have a good mtn bike or horse.

[MindSnackBar]

Thank you for this video. Once I'm walking and able to use the left side of my body again and get fully recovered from the severe stroke that I had my wife and I am planning on doing the off grid homestead prepper lifestyle. This is a new dynamic that we now don't have to worry about. Thanks again

The EMP Commission's 2008 report noted above is one of the few published studies that specifically addresses the effects of an electromagnetic pulse on both cars and trucks, in particular with an eye on whether the pulses would destroy the low-voltage electronics prevalent in then-modern vehicles. Pry, one of the authors of the report, said that no other report or study on an electromagnetic pulse's effects actually subjected cars to pulses and he's not aware of any similar study since then. As noted in the report:

"We tested a sample of 37 cars in an EMP simulation laboratory, with automobile vintages ranging from 1986 through 2002. Automobiles of these vintages include extensive electronics and represent a significant fraction of automobiles on the road today. The testing was conducted by exposing running and nonrunning automobiles to sequentially increasing EMP field intensities. If anomalous response (either temporary or permanent) was observed, the testing of that particular automobile was stopped. If no anomalous response was observed, the testing was continued up to the field intensity limits of the simulation capability (approximately 50 kV/m).

"Automobiles were subjected to EMP environments under both engine turned off and engine turned on conditions. No effects were subsequently observed in those automobiles that were not turned on during EMP exposure. The most serious effect observed on running automobiles was that the motors in three cars stopped at field strengths of approximately 30 kV/m or above. In an actual EMP exposure, these vehicles would glide to a stop and require the driver to restart them. Electronics in the dashboard of one automobile were damaged and required repair. Other effects were relatively minor. Twenty-five automobiles exhibited malfunctions that could be considered only a nuisance (e.g., blinking dashboard lights) and did not require driver intervention to correct. Eight of the 37 cars tested did not exhibit any anomalous response."

Just make sure you’re also hauling a clean, unused gas can, a HAND pump bulb-style siphon hose, and a big Phillips screwdriver (to pop open gasoline caps on those other cars that didn’t buy the device) so you can keep on going-and-going-and-going (like the Energizer Buggy)!

Working with some MI Army Natl Guard folks earlier this year, got to talking and they showed us...to their knowledge, DOD has had these very devices installed in their vehicles. Shows us how easily they install too so I bought one for the truck when they were doing their ~$100 off promos. Hoping never have to test it. Also suggest grinding paint off any metal surface thoroughly where the ground wire attaches.

[leroyjenkins]

Great source of information. If this does in fact work, and you can roll out, be mindful of people that will do anything to take what you have. Stock up on guns and ammo so you at least have a fighting chance on you egress out of town.

[JugglesGrenades]

Problem is....you can never be 100% sure this is going to work until after the event.

[billyandrew]

Well, my friend, I don't have a vehicle, don't drive, so don't need this device, but you sold me on it, if things ever change.
Your enthusiasm is obvious and refreshing and your accent is a delight to listen to, as is mine, (Scottish) I'm told.
I may have viewed one of your vids in the past, I'm not sure, but we appear to be on the same wavelength, from my quick glance at your channel, so you've earned yourself a new subscriber.

[meltdown]

Heard back from EMP Shield. They have never tested a vehicle equipped with their product in an EMP generator. Save your money.

[elizabethy]

All Right!!😂 Yoou had me at the raspberry!!🤣🤣 Im so glad I found this info. It was presented well, and easily, so even I could understand it!!

[satexman]

This is a very complex topic. More than likely your vehicle will survive a solar flare 'carrington event' and maybe even an emp. Depends where you are. EV's are another issue. If they are plugged in getting charged when it hits...done. But most of those chips in your car don't have a damn thing to do with whether your car will run or not. In fact, pick the ones that do, and buy a replacement and put it in a faraday bag. Once the last nuke has gone off, and most of the world is destroyed you can put it in and go for a drive. The issue is the grid. EMP's....well, if nukes are being set off....the problems are too numerous to even speak of or list or predict. The consequences are literally immeasurable. There is nothing more dangerous than a false sense of security.
