  • In this video, I show you how to make a faraday cage in 5 minutes with just 3 items. I believe a smaller can is best because it is light, portable, and easier to store. However, a larger can would be good for things like a solar generator.
    PLEASE NOTE: A cellphone has a much stronger signal. If you put your cellphone in without foil and you can't call it or it goes to your voicemail, then your cage is probably protecting WAY above the minimum 50dB shielding. It took a bit of work, but I was able to seal my cage well enough to even block that cellphone signal. Don't expect that to happen, though.
    The source for my information is from Dr. Bradley's RUclips channel. See his link below. I also used his book called “Disaster Preparedness for EMP Attack and Solar Storms” amzn.to/4a59xNX
    NOTE: If the signal still gets through, you may have to create a better seal of the opening rim of the can. I had a can that had a looser lid. It was a larger can. When I put the tape around the opening, the signal went away. You can also go to disasterprepar... to buy a special seal for this.

    that little tote in there is brilliant! fyi Behrens makes a 10 gallon with a locking lid, This might solve your lid not making a good connection problem. Also sealing the lid with a complete strip of the aluminum tape should do it, although inconvenient for accessing your gear.

      My small can lid seals really well... very tight without adding foil to the opening rim. My larger can lid does not seal as well. I had to add tape to the rim. In that case, I didnt have to tape the lid down.
