I am curious how an electronic device will protect other electronics from an attack that is designed to destroy electronics?

A fool and his money are soon parted.

If you're really worried about electromagnetic interference disabling your modern car, preventing you from driving down to the Cracker Barrel after a full-on nuclear barrage that was close enough to hit you with an emp but not so close all of your local infrastructure and commerce is still in tact and fully functioning..

The only option is a vehicle without any (complicated) electronics:

My solution is a 1980 International Scout.

I assume you have a faraday cage around your profile picture which is why it only shows up as a shadow guy.

O how I love the internet! Just about the time I have convinced myself something is seriously wrong with me, I read stuff like this and suddenly I feel ok.

🤔 adding something to protect something that doesn’t work right from the start. Think I’m done with the internet for today.

That's my I have a '75. My '22 will be a paper weight. But then again, the whole subject is silly.

Theres so much bad information out there on this subject. First and foremost, THESE UNITS WILL NOT PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE FROM E1 OR E2 PULSES. Sure a weaponzied HEMP or nuke is possible, but if thats the case, you have alot more to worry about than your vehicle starting. E3 pulses, which are most likely to happen wont affect anything on the planet but our "temporary" and fragile infrastructure. All vehicles and small electronics wont be affected. No, tires alone or the chassis wont provide adequate protection in the event of an actual EMP or HEMP. Nor will grounding your frame, on the contrary that will just essentially create a big antennae to conduct the surge. The only practical way to protect your vehicle from all types of EMP scenarios is to park it inside a grounded faraday cage. like a steel or double walled aluminum garage with no seems or openings. This isnt practical for most people, so the next best option is to do what the military does to protect mobile vehicles from EMPs. This is an extremly invloved and expensive route, but the only thing that could hold a candle to such an event. Check the PDF here..

For all the information you could ever need on EMPs, check out this CREDIBLE source. Filled with factual information on this vast subject.
