We built a Faraday cage a few years back with a galvanized trash can solidly lined in cardboard, then sealed with aluminum tape. We used 2 cell phones to test it. Put one cell phone inside, seal the cage, then call the cell phone. If you hear it ring or get a "missed call" on that phone, you need more sealing. We wound up also lining the inside of the lid with cardboard, and that did the trick. Cheap and effective.

Yup, I read it years ago. Really powerful read. Very descriptive. Watch American Blackout. If that doesn't encourage people to prepare, nothing will.

instead of cardboard or building a wooden box, why not just use a thick Styrofoam cooler? the lid is already made to seal just like the one you made. also waterproof if not submerged,will float in a flood and if you seal around the opening with waterproof tape, would be completely waterproof. Pet stores and pet fish stores give them away for free if you ask. just get the extra large ones.The Styrofoam boxes are what the aquarium fish are delivered in.I use them to make stray cat shelters,with a piece of overhanging plywood or even cardboard on a contractor bag. those coolers are very useful for many things. I also store tools in them inside the shed and they stay clean and don't rust. Also great to stack up with prepper food. No moisture gets in.

A solar CME is a threat to the power grid and long communication cables. It’s not a threat itself to small digital electronics.

Generally they have a rubber seal for the top which breaks the Faraday cage. There are also holes in them to allow for air circulation for the cooling mechanism. The interior lining may not be metal even if the outside is but as a starting base it’s a great idea you just have to make sure it is 100% sealed with conductive material. Cover all holes (air circulation, power cord, drain, piping, etc) and work up some way to seal the top (note, exterior finish (paint) may disrupt connectivity.

To be able to withstand an EMP, and in order to make a proper Faraday cage/box you MUST understand the properties of an EMP. Not understanding the nature of EMP's and making a box that is supposed to protect your sensitive electronics from EMP's that is based on a lack of understanding WILL result in making a faraday box that simply does not work. Anyone with any knowledge of EMP's will tell you that an EMP creates 3 types of waves or pulses. E1, E2 and E3. The E2 and E3 are pulses that "look" like a CME and a lightning strike. The E1 pulse is the pulse that is the real danger. It is this pulse that, without understanding its properties, will be the downfall of faraday cages that are make like yours. I can't go into detail about the E1 pulse, the E2 and E3 pulse. Sufficeth to say that there's a huge difference between them. The radio tester you are using.... that too will not mimic an E1 pulse. For you see, the E1 pulse uses frequencies anywhere from 100Khz to 30GHz.... You are only testing ONE frequency... and I really don't care which frequency that radio is tuned to. You have to be able to prevent frequencies from this huge range and not a single frequency. This is why your microwave does NOT make a good faraday cage. IT only protects you from a certain small range of frequencies and not the entire frequency range of the E1 pulse. You also haven't taken into consideration the amount of surface voltage that will be present on the faraday box if a small yield HEMP hits. A SMALL yield HEMP produces around 50K volts/meter squared. Today's HEMP's produce in excess of 200K volts/meter squared. What does that mean? Anyone that understands EMP's and HEMP's understands that when the gamma particles that are ripped from the upper atmosphere come down to earth, they create the 50Kv/m2, which means that if you have a box, similar to yours, with dimensions that measure 1meter x 1 meter x 1 meter, the surface voltage on that box will be 50,000 volts. Again... this is for the old HEMP's. Today it would be 200,000 volts on the surface of your 1meter box. Depending on the THICKNESS of the material will determine how much of the surface voltage can be present ON THE INSIDE of the box. It is quite necessary to keep a physical barrier or distance from any device inside of the box to any of the 6 sides of the box. For a 50kv/m2 yield HEMP, you are required to keep AT LEAST 1.5" distance away from the surface voltage. It is understood that with a 50kv/m2 surface voltage the electrical voltages "jump" to any device within 1.5" of the surface voltage. The wood may in fact be the right solution here... but you need more than just the 1/2" press-wood, or fiberboard. You really need the 1.5" of separation. In addition, you need to wrap your devices that are placed in the box with heavy duty anti-static material. This is just the beginning of what needs to be done. I find it interesting that many people on KZread show their "solution" when the solution really doesn't address the issues that an EMP or HEMP produces. Your "EMP proof" box has many issues with it. I just wanted to let you know.

Wouldn't it "fry" the cell phone towers l, making a good cell phone useless?

You can save data on your phone and also CB’s etc don’t use phone towers
