For a 55 gallon drum Faraday storage unit: 1. One of the little Honda generators (drained of fuel and oil, with some spare plugs) 2. Ecoflow/Jackery type BBS with at least 2 sets of folding/flexible panels. 3. Linux based laptop (battery removed, with a couple of extras) times 2 at least 4. USB drives/memory sticks with multiple copies of downloaded Wikipedia and every other prep/medical oriented website/documentation I can find. 5. Spare ECU's for any ICE vehicles you own. 6. CB/HAM/other radios. Handhelds but with the capability to connect to a base station type antenna. I would use vacuum sealed bags with desiccant packets for each of the smaller items and possibly individual Faraday bags as well. Once I was ready to seal up the cache, throw a bunch of desiccant packs in, clamp down the lid and seal the entire outside with rubberized truck bed liner.
Large ammo cans also work. Older WWII-era 20MM and 40MM cans work well. Laptops, radios, drones, chargers, tablets, CPAP, medical devices, you name it. Portable. But the drum or large garbage can work as well. I used Faraday cloth and tape as well to make my own bags. A tablet with tons of micro SD cards loaded up with information on any subject of use are now nice and safe, and portable.
I'm not looking for the day our electronics are disabled, but it this does happen, whats the use in saving the few from being disabled? No internet, banking, radio, cars, trucks, etc etc. We wouldnt be able to use it anyway. I may be missing something here, but we're all meant to return to our roots. Love what ya'll are doing 😊
A true Faraday cage that can be seen thru is constructed using a rectangle cube made from 2 x 2 lumber lined with copper screen wire inside and outside bonded at only one point and preferably grounded. Even a hinged door can be incorporated if done properly. Made several of these over the years. Most difficult task is finding copper screen wire, but it is available.
One of the most important problems you’ll need to overcome is communicating with people outside your property. There will be no cell service, tv, or radio. I would put a home base Cb radio and have an antenna up and radio. As for your house and solar system, you can emp proof them as well.
Be sure to include an emergency radio with ham radio bands. Walkie talkies, the longer the range you can afford the better. Small solar panel sets for charging devices, the flexible type.
There are devices that can protect your solar array and battery bank and charger/inverters. The "provident prepper" channel did a number of video's on them and even installed their own solar/battery system a few months ago with these devices integrated in it
Just a thought here. In the even of an EMP requiring this protection the communications network will be down. cell phones and internet will be gone. An armature radio (Ham), GMRS, or even a CB radio would be useful to allow communication and to gather information.
@@MartinJohnsonOffGridLiving Almost all, if not all amateur radios run off of 12 volt systems. This makes them ideal for off grid or solar power supplies. A simple wire antenna can send and receive across the country. Even a simple hand held radio with a home made antenna can reach over 50 miles.
Back In The Early 90's I Worked On The Construction Of Chrysler Electronics City Madison Alabama! Their Research Shop Is A Giant EMP Proof Building!! Even Before We Pt the Metal Panels On The Walls Just Being Inside The Steel Structure Knocked Out Our AM/FM Radios! We Put Metal Panels On The Walls All The Way Up To The Bottom Of The Metal Roof Decking! It Was Like Aluminum Siding But It Ran Vertical Instead of The Traditional Way You Side A Home! Then We Went Out To The Redstone Arsenal And Worked For Colonel Jones Building A Giant EMP Proof Building!
Who says you can’t be a follower of Jesus and be a prepper also? When you follow Jesus, you are to be prepared spiritually prior to His return! So, Why not be prepared physically, IF or when a disaster strikes? It might not always be the worst case scenario so why not have some items like food and water stored up? Natural disasters such as tornadoes, thunderstorms that take down power lines which can disrupt your life for sometimes days! I keep a 12 volt back up battery and a solar panel to recharge it and appropriate adapters for my bi-pap machine in case the power goes out, which happened to us already! I don’t sleep well without my machine! Period! If you don’t feel the need to prepare then don’t! But why criticize someone else that does feel the responsibility to do it to provide for their families safety and comfort! That’s what Gods word says to be a good steward for your family is all about! Thanks Martin and Julie for trying to be a good friend, a good neighbor by giving ideas! Prayers for you and your family!
Couple questions. First, can the items going inside touch each other if they are metal? Second, if the aluminum tins work as Faraday Cage’s, wouldn’t a metal trash can also work? Thanks.
Great Video covering a very real threat! So it is only active electronic devices that are susceptible to EMP, specifically Field Effect Transistor based devices as opposed to Bipolar Junction Transistor based devices. Programmable Read Only Memories, Electronically Erasable Read Only Memories are very vulnerable to being erased by a really close lightning discharge as well as other forms of EMP! Interestingly enough, Thermionic Emmission Devices, such as old Valve Technology, Valve Radio Receivers, Transmitters, Amplifiers, etc. Are not affected by EMP at all! These have been making a come back of late amongst audio enthusiasts who love the "rich sound" of the harmonics that they generate! Many of the older Soviet Aircraft have Valve based avionics systems! 🙂 I am an electronics engineer, military communications system specialist!
So how long after a nuclear explosion in the upper atmosphere would the effects be felt? Would you have time to gather up all of your electronics stuff and secure them? Or would it be so fast that you would have to keep your stuff in a cage all the time?
Such terrible comments. Living off-grid, suggests you believe something could happen to services and capabilities. I’ve been looking into Faraday Cages for some time, thinking you need to protect yourself and some important components. Great video, thank you!!!
OK, so you have protected your equipment, after the event when the rest of the world has lost 80 - 90% of electrical equipment has been lost what is there going to be to receive?
forget about your emp it is not going to save you a walkie talkie set might give you short range communication as well as CB radio or ham, but if one hits the power grid is off for years satellite communication is out for decades our military is also down😨I don't mean fear monger but this is a area I have great expertise I was trained by uncle sam if you have a faraday cage pack it smart batteries cb or walkie talkie radio a computer to store a log or inventory or has a medical surgery by the numbers program or cad program.
A man made EMP is a high altitude detonation circa 200 miles up with minimal radiation, so there is no need for a bunker. That being said, an EMP attack would most likely be a prelude to ground bursts as the EMP would potentially destroy defensive capability.
doomsday scenario's leave me cold. Whatever happens, happens. Would rather not be alive on the other side of that type of scenario. Good luck to you and whoever you believe will survive such a scenario and have any kind of meaningful life compared to what you have today/now.
Marty, I have been watching your content for years and I enjoy the idea of independence. What I have no use for, on the other hand, is doomsday. I live in the middle of North Dakota in a house with steal siding. So EMP is actually low on my list. I choose to live here for the fact if it hits the fan, I live in the fan.
I enjoy watching your shows. However, this Faraday cage show is pretty pointless. If there is a massive solar event, the resulting electrical damage will be extensive enough to render the devices you save to be useless. The off grid solar inverters and chargers will be destroyed without the faraday cage protecting that system, so no power to run things. In the event of a foreign attack with a nuclear EMP detonation, protecting these few items from the EMP will be the least of your worries. Maybe a CB radio or similar may prove to be useful if provisions for power to operate it are accounted for. These opinions are all mine, and will likely differ from yours, so please put forth your efforts in the ways that you choose to be best.
If everything that you are so afraid of happens....why would you want to live in a world that 90% of the people died? I question your faith you always brag about......let God sort it all out.
This is Good info! Listen and take heed you stiff necked! Our HEAVENLY FATHER warns his flock and if you feel this way then dont be mad when you didnt heed the warning and you and your family are hungry and dark and desperate!

Instead of sheets of cardboard could you use the tubes for pouring concrete columns?
Anxious to see your protection armory , don’t cut back there, if what you say ever happens, people Wii do crazy when hungry!
Couple questions. First, can the items going inside touch each other if they are metal? Second, if the aluminum tins work as Faraday Cage’s, wouldn’t a metal trash can also work? Thanks.
Yes it would. I like the 55 gallon drum better because they are easer to stack and more durable.

I use a Faraday case for vehical remote control
That would be good but it would probably fry cars electrics anyway.
I use truck bed liner spray paint (rubber) instead of cardboard.
I like that idea!!
We need bring comeback to Indonesian i'm really Miss of Yogyakarta Pak Martin😭

It's dependent on where the event is in relation to your location but it will hit before you know that it's happening

Information from other prepared people. Or from other parts of the world on SW.

Not sure what that means.
Couldn't you do the same thing with a garbage can?
For sure.
Mr Martin knows what we don't know, hmm

Very good information, but how do you know if you will have the time to place your electronics into your cages? Mmmm
You have items already put in the cage a head of time that you want protected!
If you think an EMP is plausible, where is your nuclear bunker
A man made EMP is a high altitude detonation circa 200 miles up with minimal radiation, so there is no need for a bunker. That being said, an EMP attack would most likely be a prelude to ground bursts as the EMP would potentially destroy defensive capability.
Baby steps.
WHY?????
Why what?

I would rather be alive and able to help others come to know Jesus before it is too late.
BTW a simpler farady cage is already in most of the homes...don't trow away you old microwave...that is already a faraday cage....
True. Unfortunately they don’t hold much.
