No and it won't damage electromechanical or vacuum tube based equipment.

What it will ruin it solidstate electronics.

So an old car with points and a distributer will work just fine after an EMP, but all modern cars with electronic ignition and computers will be dead.

What kind of electro-magnetic pulse -EMP- weapons are there?

Nuclear weapons, when detonated at high altitude, will produce a significant EMP capable of damaging unshielded electrical components. There has been discussion of NNMP weapons (non nuclear magnetic pulse) but that information is classified. Please see the link below for some general information on EMP.

Will a Faraday box protect a walkie-talkie from an EMP?

Yes, a Faraday box can protect a walkie-talkie from an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). The box works by creating a conductive enclosure that absorbs and redistributes the electromagnetic energy, preventing it from reaching the devices inside. To be effective, the box must be properly constructed with no gaps or openings that could allow electromagnetic waves to penetrate. Ensuring that the walkie-talkie is fully enclosed and that the box is grounded can enhance protection against an EMP.


Can I replace NiCd batteries with NiMH batteries in solar lights?

Yes, you can typically replace NiCd batteries with NiMH batteries in solar lights as long as the voltage and size of the batteries are compatible. NiMH batteries are a more environmentally friendly option and may provide better performance in some cases.


If D batteries and AA batteries are both 1.5 volts why are D batteries stronger than AA batteries?

D batteries are larger than AA batteries, which means they contain more energy and a larger capacity to deliver power over a longer period of time. This results in D batteries being considered stronger than AA batteries, even though they have the same voltage.

Will EMP affect batteries?

Electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) can potentially affect batteries, particularly those in electronic devices, by disrupting the electronics and circuitry that manage battery functions. While the battery cells themselves may remain intact, the associated electronics could be damaged, rendering the device inoperable. However, standalone batteries, like those in flashlights or simple devices without complex circuitry, are generally less susceptible to EMP effects. Overall, the impact largely depends on the type of device and its design.
