TIP: Tin foil is used to make this guide more accessible - and it works (see test video).
If you like, choose something more heavy duty if you have it on hand (for more hardened protection), better yet, copper mesh (smaller the holes, the more spectrum blocking).
We explore signal blocking, a privacy bonus (identifiers cannot be captured without signal). Faced a serious direct proximity Nuclear EMP attack, don't expect tin foil to prevent everything - but it will "weaken" damage (best stored underground / basement).
The more conductive, the more effective the protection (for both privacy and EMP related protection). This guide uses household materials to allow just about anyone to follow. Additional layering, and / or use of more conductive material strengthens protection. The choice is yours! Copper is an excellent choice over aluminum.
Halfway through construction, we do a small test to check our progress.
This is about 2 layers in (suggest 4 layers if using aluminum foil).
What's This Thing For?
Blocking Radio / Electromagnetic Energy
Privacy (Blocking Cell Phone Or Other Device From Sharing Identifiers, BLE, WiFi, Cellular, etc)
Offers Protection Against EMP (Depending On Power, Proximity, Material Used)
PREVIEWS OF FINISHED "HOUSEHOLD FARADAY BOX":
The above pictures detail what a finished "Household" Faraday Box may look like. It is in fact the one I worked on.
I will be detailing more pictures of the process, including how I layed the HVAC foil tape in a coming post.
And now, we perform our first test, about halfway through the construction of the above:
