EMP Vehicle Protection Kit 2

The T.R.A.P.™ is designed to guard against very fast transients from any source. This includes radiated energy from a nearby lightning strike or an overhead electromagnetic pulse (EMP).

The T.R.A.P.™-AC contains a high-voltage 5,000-watt transient voltage suppression device in a form factor that plugs into the three-prong AC receptacle of an inverter or portable generator.

There are two fundamental ways to protect inverters and portable generators.

1. Enclose the inverter or generator in something conductive. EMP bags and EMP cloth do a great job of providing protection.
2. Use transient protection devices. The Transient Reducing Auxiliary Plugs (T.R.A.P.s) can be inserted into the 12-volt DC auxiliary and 120-volt AC plugs to provide transient protection.

What will a T.R.A.P.™ devices protect against?
The T.R.A.P.™ is designed to guard against very fast transients from any source. This includes radiated energy from a nearby lightning strike or an overhead electromagnetic pulse (EMP).

How can the T.R.A.P.™ devices be effective against an EMP when they’re so small?
The danger to inverters and portable generators from an EMP is the high voltage that is introduced on the cables from E1 and E2. Those transient voltages are extremely brief in time (from nanoseconds to microseconds) and can therefore be suppressed using small devices. This is distinctly different than the case with homes, which would also experience a powerful E1 current surge from the power grid.

Can you use more than one T.R.A.P.™ in a generator or inverter?
Absolutely. Putting energy “traps” at multiple points in your generator or inverter helps to better shunt away the unwanted energy.

Does the T.R.A.P.™-AC have an outlet on the back side?
No. The back of the T.R.A.P.™-AC is enclosed. It does not pass power through it.

The EMP Vehicle Protection Kit is a combination of the different vehicle protection devices. Use these on your vehicle to protect it from transients-like load changes, lightning strikes, conducted transients, and even an EMP. This bundle includes: 1 T.R.A.P., 1 T.R.A.P.-B, and 2 Vehicle Ferrites. Save money when you purchase these parts together. Parts are also sold individually.

Vehicles are protected using three products: T.R.A.P.s, T.R.A.P.-Bs, and High-saturation Car Ferrites

The T.R.A.P.™ Transient Reducing Auxiliary Plug is a multi-purpose transient protection device. Each plug contains a 5,000-watt transient voltage suppression device with a turn on time under 1 picosecond. The T.R.A.P.™ is easy to install – just plug the device into the 12-Volt auxiliary receptacle ( cigarette lighter). The device is 3″ long, so please ensure there is room to insert the plug.

The T.R.A.P.™-B contains the same 5,000-watt transient voltage suppression device in a form that can be easily connected across a vehicle’s battery terminals.

High-saturation ferrites can be installed on the battery wires to reduce high-frequency current transients.

How can the T.R.A.P.™ be effective against an EMP when it’s so small?
The danger to vehicles from an EMP is the high voltage that is introduced on the cables from E1 and E2. Those transient voltages are extremely brief in time (from nanoseconds to microseconds) and can therefore be suppressed using small devices. This is distinctly different than the case with homes, which would also experience a powerful E1 current surge from the power grid.

Can you use more than one T.R.A.P.™ in a vehicle?
Absolutely. Putting energy “traps” at multiple points in your vehicle helps to better shunt away the unwanted energy. Maximum protection is achieved by using a T.R.A.P.™ in every auxiliary power outlet, as well as using the T.R.A.P.™-B across the vehicle’s battery.

Does a T.R.A.P.™ protect a vehicle when the vehicle is powered off?
The T.R.A.P.™ provides transient protection even with the ignition switch turned off because interconnected cable assemblies can still receive damaging energy. The T.R.A.P.™ continues to act as a high-frequency energy sink when the vehicle is unpowered.

Will a T.R.A.P.™ or T.R.A.P.™-B drain my battery?
T.R.A.P.™ products draw essentially zero current except when there is a significant overvoltage, so they will not drain your battery.

How do I change out the ring terminals on the T.R.A.P.-B?
Below is a video showing how to swap the ring terminals on the T.R.A.P.-B.

DEFCON™ Vehicle: The DEFCON Vehicle is an ultra-duty surge protection device specifically designed to protect a vehicle’s electronics from damaging electromagnetic energy resulting from an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). The DEFCON Vehicle is capable of shunting away an incredible 270,000 amps of current! Modern vehicles are heavily reliant on electronic components, controlling every aspect of the vehicle. An EMP’s intense and rapid electromagnetic field can induce powerful electrical currents and voltages in the vehicle’s wiring and delicate electronic components, leading to severe damage. This electromagnetic interference can result in critical system upsets and permanent failures, stalling the vehicle and even destroying its engine control unit.

An EMP can disrupt satellite navigation systems, cellular connectivity, and communication with emergency services, leaving occupants stranded and without crucial assistance. Because of this realistic threat, we have developed DEFCON™ Vehicle to act as a shield against an EMP for your vehicle. The idea behind it is simple. The DEFCON™ Vehicle is designed to limit the induced energy that would couple into your vehicle, keeping its electronics from becoming damaged, and ensuring the safety and working status of your vehicle. The DEFCON™ Vehicle comes in a weatherproofed package with ring terminals for easy installation and attachment. The module is also internally waterproofed using a potting compound. The device uses automotive-grade wire, ring terminals, and marine-grade heat shrink tubing, and comes in a convenient form factor for use across the battery terminals.

DEFCON™  EMP Alert System: If an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) occurs, most people will remain completely unaware. Only as they discover that many of their modern electronics stopped functioning, will they begin to suspect that something is wrong. The DEFCON™ is designed to detect electrical disturbances resulting from an electromagnetic pulse or a solar coronal mass ejection (CME). This device monitors the power lines and ambient air for damaging disturbances. Once detected, the DEFCON™ provides audible warnings so that additional protective steps can be taken, such as opening the main circuit breaker to prevent home damage.

The DEFCON™is the first low-cost device designed to detect electrical disturbances resulting from an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) or a solar coronal mass ejection (CME). The DEFCON™plugs into any standard 120-volt AC receptacle and draws less than 50 milliamps of current, about the same as a 5-watt nightlight.

How does DEFCON™ warn of an EMP/CME?

The DEFCON™ provides three distinct audible alarms:

• (1) a brief ‘beep’ when a very fast E1/E2-type pulse is detected
• (2) a long sustained ‘beeeeep’ when an E3 overvoltage condition is detected
• (3) a pulsating ‘beep-beep-beep’ when an E3-induced undervoltage condition is detected.

Red lights also become visible when any detection occurs.
