Haha dude that happens all the time, I feel your pain. But, we all bring different and valuable perspectives to our own audiences so I consider it a win. The fact that multiple channels accidentally cover similar topics around the same time means we are collectively on the same wavelength. The big win is that we get people critically thinking about these subjects so they can make the wisest decisions possible. The fact that it’s all unplanned is just mind blowing. 😂 Can’t wait to see yours. I feel like we had to omit so much data and other perspectives just to get it at a decent timestamp.

We have a 5kw USMC diesel generator, and a plastic to diesel conversion still for truck & genny fuel. Our cabin has two wood stoves, so we barely break 1kw as the electricity is only needed for our laziness and our central air. The windmill is our next addition, but it hasn't been necessary yet. We have a 1/2 acre garden for seasonal veggies, a micro green growing rack in the basement, a small greenhouse for cultivating micro green seeds, a small orchard of apple, pawpaw, and mulberry trees, and a great berry patch. We have goats for milk, quail for eggs, and three bee hives for honey. I also have a an extensive camera/alarm system on my property, and enough firepower to fend off a siege. We didn't even mean to prep like this. The cabin already had most of the stuff when we bought it, and the rest was just because we wanted some hobbies that could save us money and get us a farm tax credit.

Electrician here, I feel like some of the products are a scam. The OBD2 Plug is basically useless since that plug is only there for communication, the actuall sensors and can system don't run through there, you can also see on the backside there is like 2 pins connected the rest is blank. The Ferrite around the cables is not going to do anything. The AC plug is only protecting the Mosfets, which are so beefy they are going to be unimpressed by an EMP, and not the sensitive switching circuit. The defcon could actually do something since it could in theory equalize the voltage across any part of the car, but then it's also adding long wires that are basically antennas for an EMP. And the plug with the green and red wires could also do something similar to the defcon, but it's leaving out the chassis. These products are also incredibly expensive for what they are, the diode they are using can be bought for cents plus a plastic box and some wires, the defcon for example probably costs them less than 25 bucks to make and they are charging 400 for it. If you want to protect your car against an EMP you should disconnect the battery terminals and tie them and your chase into your house's ground, this will prevent any voltage differential no matter how much power the EMP is pumping out, sadly it might also be impractical.

Actually, the power grid protection is for lightning and mild E3 protection (5,000 V/M I think and not 50,000 V/M which can be the case with EMP). Our grid is on the verge of collapse as it is. Both electric vehicle charging and the massive power needed by AI can not currently be handled. The state of California and several major cities are already experiencing brown outs. The grid needs a lot of work and including EMP protection. I am an electrical engineer and well aware of grid problems and EMP.

I lived through Hurricane Ike and recently Beryl. 15 days with no electricity of any kind in the aftermath of Ike. 9 days after Beryl. Beryl hardly even brought much water to my area so at least I was able to leave. I slept on the patio outside because it was pushing 100 degrees inside my home. Elderly people died from heat stress and at least one person died when they couldn't get power to some sort of oxygen machine they needed. That was barely a week without a functioning electrical grid. A man made attack on the U.S. power grid would destroy this country in probably about 30 days. Way too much of our things rely not just on electricity, but the internet. Some people literally go insane when they're sitting in 100 degree heat, can't watch TV, can't cook food, and have no clue when/if they'll ever get to do those things again. Those hurricanes were isolated events. People from other towns came to help us (God, Bless Them!). A nationwide event would offer no such relief as we'd all be in the dark.

As an RF Engineer with heavy hands on experience I'd like to openly say an EMP is so much less of a threat as it was before when we had lower tech that got cooked back then during a mass ejection. Nobody ever notices how the "Air" is basically full during modern times, full of signals WiFi, Bluetooth, walkie, short waves, long waves, etc. Essentially the world around you in a city is so full of RF trash that all modern electronics have to be up to standards "to receive interference" and are designed to handle surviving constant RF radiation. Modern electronics when quality are "potted" in most cases significantly reducing the already low chance of arcing across components and juntions. Essentially modern equipment (when you keep up with the times) can mostly handle a stupid EMP/EMF/RF. Those people whom believe old tech is better and would hold up better are just nerfing their own capabilities. Old tech was overbuilt inefficiently so could handle things it really shouldn't have. Old components are also harder and harder to source daily if you were to try and make repairs. The cheapest way is to create a ground around an object without making contact, a Faraday enclosure. Ground it's self is a target to Ground through for RF EMF that cause charges, those high charges can run through and fry things trying to reach ground. A ground enclosure of the correct mesh to block the correct waves can prevent any RF EMF from reaching inside. Basically one of those cages that merds get in when they want a giant tesla coil to through lightning at them, the people survive the same way electronics would. Mesh size IS ABSOLUTELY IMPORTANT TO THE WAVE SIZE IF USING MESH. that's why your microwave doesn't cook you through the window. 🤣 the waves are too large to fit through that mesh.

Man I was just going to say about mesh size, I’m no RF or any electrical Engineer but I did have to take some courses that covered it, I’m in the Civil Engineering field and specifically Structural Engineering so when we do government contracts, all I can say is they’re EMP proof, Bomb Proof, Fireproof, and even will survive Indirect Nuclear Weapons, instead of extra rebar in the concrete, Steel mesh is added into the concrete, it also helps that concrete is not a conductor, and wood isn’t either but you can penetrate through wood with RF.

All OBD-1 Vehicles Would Still Be Functional After An EMP This Is Because OBD-1 Doesn't Use Software But OBD-2 Uses Software And As Such An EMP Would Scramble The System Software And Would Require A Reflash So Even Though The Hardware Would Be Totally Fine After An EMP That Software Reflash Issue Would Render Every Electronic Device That Runs On Software Completely Functionless However Your VCR Would Still Record And Playback VHS Tapes Your Cassette Deck Would Still Work And So Would 8-Track Tapes This Is Because Magnetic Storage Mediums Like Those DO NOT Rely On Software To Record And Store The Information Microprocessors And Solid-State Storage Mediums Would Still Be Functional At The Hardware Level But Without Software To Tell The Little Transistors When To Turn On And Off The Information Stored In Them Would Be Unrecoverable Yeah Sorry But Digital Is No Match For Analog An EMP Won't Even Put A Skip In Analog Electronics

It is a bit of a relief to see some channels finally taking the threat of large events that can generate an EMP a bit more seriously... I am an electronics engineer by trade, but I am also part of medieval re-enactment groups that do not use electricity at all... so I have a pretty good understanding of both sides of the question... There will be some that will "claim" that EMPs are not **THAT** bad.... uh huh... if that is the case, why are electronics packaged in ESD bags? Why is it important to wear a grounding cable when working on electronics and computers? The size of the device or chip only plays a part when looking at EMPs that can generate the pulse in long lines or antennas, **IF** they are not connected... The issue is about the same as if your device was struck by lightning... When you scuff your feet across a carpet to zap your buddy, you are storing and releasing an electrical charge... kind of like a capacitor... fur and glass are not electrically conductive but if you rub them together you can still transfer enough electrons to bend water and kill a microchip. Faraday cages are a great step, but those also require a lot of extra steps and care in their construction. Metal Oxide varistors are great for clamping electrical over voltages but they also have a capacity rating to take into account. Once you understand the potential forces you are going to likely deal with, then you can act accordingly... One reason you were not able to find much information on this topic is that it has been steadily removed from online sources... I still have the books that address many of these issues and the very real testing that was done at the time and has never made it into digital format. Bottom line is that governments do not want these things available to their citizens, much less their enemies, so it is withheld in the name of "national security"... I worked on many of these things over the years between the military, industry, and 'site hardening'... I really do not give a damn about what ANY naysayers might post, if the feces hit the rotary air mover, I will be living off of their supplies when they failed to address all the issues that modern governments might throw at them. One thing you definitely have correct is that one of the greater threats is other people... but secondarily is the long term survival and rebuilding and that requires knowledge in those basic sciences of chemistry, physics, biology. Aside from having ready survival basics and defensive measures, having a wide range of at least basic knowledge in those things and the ways we did things prior to electricity, will go a LONG way towards your longevity in crisis situations.

Anything early '70s or newer will have electronic ignition. Anything mid-'60s or newer will have an electronic voltage regulator (12 volt systems). Anything older than that will still typically have ignition coils/condensers, etc. Small engines and very old engines with magneto ignition will likely be fine. Basically, you're not completely eliminating vulnerable electronics from gasoline vehicles almost no matter what you do. A mechanical diesel is an exception. This would be anything typically mid-'90s or older. Cheap example would be the 6.9 and 7.3 IDI diesels found in Ford pickups and International medium trucks. Old Detroit 2-strokes are another example, but those are only in heavy equipment and semis from my recollection.

Not one of those cheap surge strips, but a real lightning arrestor. Ham Radio makes use of em. A Lightning Arrestor will help ground out the massive input surge on your power line. Military Shielding for EMP attacks begin at 10,000 volts per yard, but these are assumed to be right there, front and center under attack. All I can say is make a (grounded) Faraday Cage and stash your tronix preps in it. Faraday Cage: Take some metal screen, line the walls and ceiling with it, floor would be good too. Tie each portion to the next with a conducting tie so each can conduct to the one next to it. Ground it. The cage will intercept the EMP. Within the cages there will be no EMP but let nothing touch the cage conductors themselves. Poor Mans Faraday Cage: All metal outside trash can with all metal lid. All metal dumpster. Keep the lid on. Inside is protected. Outside is not. Be sure to ground it. Feeling frisky? Buy an old fashioned all metal camper or trailer and fix it up. Metal screen can fill the gaps. Worried about the car? Metal Screen the walls and ceiling of your garage. Copper is best Metal Screen. Bronze or brass is still great. Steel is good. Aluminum... eh, its metal, it will work... not best, but its metal. So far as the toys shown... nah. Protection is not additive. Putting five devices at 5kV does not yield 25 KV... just the 5. It can limit the impulse. Better than nothing.

Thank you for this video. You've learned more than me about the CME and nuke emp threats, but one that I experienced recently, and is apparently pretty common, is the EMP produced in the near vicinity of lighting strikes. I've had 3 strikes recently about 25 feet from my house. They took out about 10% of my electronics, like you mentioned, cheap/sensitive electronics like transformers and power adapters made in China. They were plugged into professional-grade high joule surge protectors, but this electromagnetic pulse didn't go through the electric wires, it radiated through the air in every direction in the vicinity from the lighting bolt. I realized how common these small EMPs are and the need for protection of electronics that I want to continue working. Luckily most items shorted out were under warranty and replaced for free. The intensity of the EMP depends on the length and power of the lightening bolt and the atmospheric conditions, so I'm sure there are more powerful ones than I experienced.

Ive read into this subject very deep. For EMP to work alternating current AC has to be powered-on, a device such as a big transformer. When the blast occurs there are three ways of energy. The second wave force pushes the AC electrons in one direction for a short time. Now this becomes direct current DC. Putting DC into AC equipment will burn it. In simple terms, this is how EMP destroys electronics. If electronics are OFF then they will not be destroyed.

Wait a week or two before pulling out your gear, after a CME. Or you may regret it! Godspeed!

From a technical point of view, EMPs are very simple. There are essentially three variables to consider when estimating the effect: - How much energy is released in the event and how long is the event itself? - How is this energy distributed across the frequency spectrum? - How far away from the initial event is the affected system? What is the cross section (circle segment vs. the whole circle) of the affected system? Frequency inversely relates to wavelength, energy over time is power; so, we know how much power is available to be coupled into the affected system, and we know how much of that power is available at each wavelength, and the dampening factor due to the distance inverse square law and the cross-section. In the affected system, every electrical connection (trace on a PCB, cable, trace on a silicon chip, bond wire inside a chip package, lead wire to a part package etc.) has a length and thus for a specific set of frequencies acts as an antenna. An antenna is very effective when its length is an odd integer multiple of a quarter wavelength. With that, you can calculate the maximum theoretical amount of power coupled into the antenna, which tells you the damage potential. Now, all you need to do is add up the damage potential of a gazillion things connected and affected and you arrive at the potential maximum damage to be expected from such an event in the worst case (that's what you learned Calculus for, guys). Reality is probably somewhat smaller than that theoretical maximum, but then again, probably it's going to be bad enough. Anyway, if you acknowledge the physical foundations of the things at play and do a tiny bit of legwork, you can take the guesswork out of the question largely. And then again, looking at those first principles, you can also judge whether some measure of protection from an EMP event will actually offer protection; a faraday cage is only effective against signals with wavelengths smaller than its own dimensions, and if there is enough energy in very low frequencies, even devices in a cage may get fried as a consequence (e.g. if there is a large old-school transformer in the power supply that happens to be tuned to just the right frequency band to be susceptible).

Ive buildt large power transformers for 11years and in addition run the vapor phase process, one of four in the plant that operates two seperate systems individually or simultaneously. When a transformer goes into the "test cage" the cover is already welded. This means if it fails test, or has to be repaired after blowing or failing in the field the cover would have to be blown/cut off wtih an acetalyne torch which throw a.massive amount of slag down into the tank and falls throughout the coils and crevises on the element. The entire element has to be loostened from the anchors removed via ceiling crane in clean environment etc. any conductive debris inside a transformer or sharp corners on insulation can cause an arc to fail or blow up transformer. The point being medium power and the small end of large power transformers take anywhere from 1month to a year and a half to build from stacking table to finaling. In 2012 when i started at the privately US owned manufacturer we were building 6-10 a month; four years in we were building about 15-20 a month and its not possible to exceed that currently as they are fully built by hand, even the coils are wound on rolling oscillator. Also everything we build is custom/customer specific and at most is duplicated 2-4 times. Now that we got the basics in 2012 95% of large to medium power transformers were 50 yrs old or older which 50 years is the lifespan of an ideal tramsformer that never fails in the field. The pace at which just medium & large power need to be replaced from the mostly end of lifespan units is daunting. Much less if a giant.portion of stations and substationa went down. If a main hub goes down for any reason thats a three year build if it hasnt previously been started. Our grid has more or less been purposely negelectes and a ticking disaster regardless of whether we have and type of radiation or nuclear event or not. So theres.that

For context, I'm an electrician and have been for over 9 years. I've had an idea for a while now of essentially a very large fairaday cage, It would cost about $5K to make. First you get a connex shipping container for $3K-$4K, you set it on top of crossties or some other wood to insulate it from the ground, then you mount lightning protection probes to the roof of the shipping container and run a large ground cable down to a grounding ring in the earth that goes around your container. The lighting probes and ground ring should absorb the pulse and direct it to the better source of ground, that is your grounding ring. The metal shipping container will add another layer of protection for all of your devices inside, you could store spare electronics inside of the connex, as well as you could keep your solar charge controller and your batteries for your solar system inside to protect them.

On the topic of regarding this as a "HILF"... specifically the "low frequency" part: It's not _just_ nuclear & solar EMP's to worry about. It's difficult to be real specific. But if the USAF or VVF decide "F all the the electronics in that local area in particular", then the warranty on all the electronics in your town, or county, can be voided at the push of a button in a variety of aircraft, with no 'bang' involved. And yes, it has even happened by accident. Ironically, it's not very effective at disabling military equipment, at least not "near-peer" military equipment. Export hardware typically lacks some of the bells & whistles. Anyway EW isn't just for making jam. There's also lightning. At very short distances, it can sometimes have a similar effect. That's why you can "hear" lightning before the thunder arrives on a radio. If lightning strikes very close (like "in your yard") then depending on it's energy level, it 'can' possibly fry a few things which aren't even plugged in. One thing to remember is that while micro-electronics have a smaller area, they also have much smaller current tolerance at the node-level on a microchip. I have a, uh.. governmental aerospace frame of reference, and I don't have even a fraction of the $-htf stuff you do. But I have a faraday house. It doesn't seem like a low-frequency possibility to me (pun intended). It's not a bad idea for just general health even, if you live next to an airport or cell tower. I can tell which runway the local AFB is using because it changes my wifi range. Oh, speaking of... the more faraday your house, the weaker your cell signal & radio or broadcase tv reception. So... that's a factor to consider. Have aluminum siding (or concrete or adobe construction, or steel siding), metal screen windows, and use reflective foil insulation on the inside of your roof, put foil insulation in your garage... and you'll have fairly minimized home problems. Probably worth just lining a closet with foil inside. Not the real thin cooking foil, just get a heavier gauge that won't tear so easily. Anyway, you can install it with a utility blade and duct tape. The only weird part is that you'll be doing the floor too. It's like a $20 closet mod though, takes maybe an hour. You can put a few "definitely need this" things in there for an extra layer of protection. Also, basement is less of a problem than upstairs, a conductive foil is ideal, but just 'mass' blocks quite a bit.

I am an EMP expert. Let's hear what you have to say... 1) Should EMP protection be on the priority list? Yes. 2) Do Faraday bags work? Partially. Ideally, you'll want a Faraday sphere, the smaller the better. 3) Grid effects: Largely attenuated by transformers and excessive voltage (airgap) shunts. 4) Nuclear EMP: Sharp pulse. To combat it, build and live underground. Proper EMP hardening uses multiple Faraday levels and a variety of shuts. I have an old laptop inside a microwave, which I keep plugged into the wall for grounding. The laptop also in a Faraday ellipse of aluminum, an insulating layer, then inside copper mesh. I recharge it once a month. As for transportation, I live 2 miles away from stores, relatives and friends. I have 2 bicycles, along with my son's old baby carrier.

I agree with you in many ways. However under the Carrington only long wires were affected. Trash cans did not explode. Horse and buggies did not break down and they had lots of metal in them. WIRE FENCES did not have reports of setting fires like telegraph wires did. EMP needs LONG LINES to gather the energy. IE TELEGRAPH WIRES. If you car , phone, solar, etc is not plugged into the grid it will not be affected. In ADDITION the towers need GOOD GOUNDING like in QUEBEC GRID DOWN. GRANIT, like the NY, not sandstone or dirt. And there are rings of power which attenuate with distance. Most of the country will be unaffected. Power outage will be common in areas but in a grid down I went throuh our ENTIRE GRID in upstate NY was taken OFF THE POLES by ice. 30 days it was all back. TRANSFORMERS? Thats the black swan. We shall see, or not

@@fladave99devices do NOT need to be powered to fry.... It will attack microcontrollers, processors and blow capacitors. Many vehicle electronics will fry at 16-18 volts!

FYI, I worked on nuclear bomber avionics that was EMP tested by the USAF. The proximity of the bomber to the blast meant that even a detonation that wasn't designed for maximum EMP effect from standard weapons would reach and could harm onboard electronics. In that regard I can tell you that a lot of measures that I have seen discussed and promoted aren't sufficient safeguards. In a real EMP attack designed for maximum EMP yield or even a Solar Event of sufficient magnitude, it would be like being nearer a regular blast like the bombers and they have very Extensive EMP safeguards. If something looks to iffy to protect electronics it is, DIY is your best bet if you can work with metal that is very useful. Old galvanized metal trash cans can easily be converted to great EMP storage containers. Remember the most critical element is the seal if it's even a tiny bit of a gap anywhere electrically and to RF it will allow an EMP pulse to harm what's inside, so always Mind the Gap (sorry about the pun but it's useful to help remember.) If your not a DIY person look at the seals and the material integrity of any product. Remember a pinhole can spell doom, so extremely good sealing and rugged material is the best bet.

most of your CPUs manufactured after the 90s have rudimentary faraday cages that are the heatsinks/transfer plate. and most car ECUs are shielded to block interference already. EMPs just aren't up to snuff yet.

The amount of the pulse across that small square area is not the problem. The pulse is arsorbed by wires, they basically acting as antennas. All the wires throughout you vehicle are connected somehow to your ECU. Learn more before commenting.

@OrganikSecrets every connection to your ecu and ecm are fused with up to 60amp fuses/relays. If a surge that powerful came across the wires, they would melt and catch fire. Like I said, EMPs are not up to snuff yet.

Good job on the video. What you called the E3 risk is the main thing to be concerned about. Not much you can do about it. Small electronic device in a desk drawer is not really at risk. Most of the EMP protection devices are a waste of time and money. A cheap option that may reduce the impact of E1 and E2 are the silver mylar bags and pink foam that some computer parts are shipped in. The pink foam protects from static electricity and the silver mylar helps to reduce external radiation. Put your device inside of the pink foam and then inside of the mylar bag so nothing is touching the inside of the mylar bag.

Another suggestion may be to learn how to *create* batteries, such as lead-acid batteries. This way you are good to go with simple and easy-to-access supplies and you can charge them using an alternator and a bicycle, a windmill, or any other creative mechanism.

Radio waves follow an inverse square law for power density: the power density is proportional to the inverse square of the distance. Every time you double the distance, you receive only one-fourth the power.

There is an inexpensive fix for the E bikes. A simple faraday cage, or in other words a conductive material that surrounds the object at interest. The charge is collected on the surface and protects what’s inside. Cheap steel chicken wire would work make a box and ground it put whatever you find valuable inside the box. Shoot you could even cover the entire interior of a garage in the stuff.

Lightning is by far the strongest source of localized EMP and aircraft are struck on a daily basis. Vehicles have taken direct hits by lightning hard enough to shut the engine down and the most they needed to restart was to disconnect the battery for a few minutes to reset the computers to factory default. The computers will relearn sensor imputs. I owned a pick-up that was struck that needed a repaint to cover the burned hood, but it fired right up. The only repair I made a few months later was to the wheel bearings due to pitting. A strap from the frame to the ground would have prevented that.
