TOP TEN DEVICES THAT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFEAFTER AN EMP STRIKE!Needless to say, an EMP strike against the United States remains
one of the worst possible disasters that could ever befall us. To beplunged into the dark ages without power, communicaons, or the
other vital modern conveniences that have become essenal to life
in this country would be hellish. It is esmated that over 200 million
people might eventually die from the eects of an EMP strike on this
naon; most of these deaths would occur some me aer the EMP
struck from untreated water, lack of power, and generally poor living
condions. While theres not much you can do to prevent an EMPstrike, there is quite a bit you can do right now to prepare for one.
Here is a list of devices and equipment that you need to have in order
to survive:
#10 FLASHLIGHTS
Life aer an EMP might just be life without power for
a long, long me. Realize that before the advent ofelectrical power, people set the rhythm of their lives
to the sun, rising early when it rose, and going to bed
shortly aer dusk. The reason for this really revolves
around the lighng situaon. The poorer one was, the
less they could waste things like candles and lamp oil
on staying up late its not as if there was TV to watch
nor was there a great abundance of reading materialfor the common folk. Basically, when it was dark, you
went to bed.
With the dawn of the 19thcentury came gas red
lamps to those who could aord them. Some homes
started using gas xtures for light and candles and
lamps became popular forms of light, albeit ones
that needed to be replenished oen. A chandler, who
made candles and wax goods for a living, was a busy
person.
The problem with todays society is that candles are
mainly decorave in nature and not in great supply,

EMP SURVIVAL
nor are they appropriate for general lighng. Hardly anyone owns an
oil lamp; families that do barely know how to use them. Flashlights
and lanterns, therefore, will fetch a premium in a post EMP world.
We sll require light aer dark for a variety of reasons, securitybeing one of them. Addionally, our homes were not designed to
use anything but electric light, and many of them are overly dark and
unsafe at night. Flashlights of all types will be worth their weight in
gold.
Clearly there is a nite
supply of baeries andone should select a
type of light that isnt
too baery intensive.
Modern LED ashlights
are almost perfect for this
task. They are insanely
bright (some smallmodels that t in the
palm of your hand put
out over 200 lumens) and they are relavely easy on baeries as long
as they are not constantly used on their brightest sengs. Modern
aluminum bodied lights like Maglite and Surere brands are also
water and shockproof. There is one caveat with these lights however;
an LED light is sensive to the E1 and E3 pulses from an EMP strikeand thus these lights must be stored in a shielded enclosure to
prevent them from being rendered useless by the strike.
Avoid incandescent bulb type hardware store ashlights as they use
bulky D and C cell baeries, dont put out much light, and are heavy
if youre on the move. If you have an opportunity to buy some of
these at a good price, by all means, do so as they may prove handy
for barter. Your own personal ashlights should be of the highestquality as there is no telling when they might be replaced again.

system and an inverter. How? Simple the cars baery is charged by
the cars own alternator. As long as the car has gas, it will charge the
baery. Normal car baeries will last for several years. Also, it has
been shown that most cars, contrary to popular belief, will remainunaected by the EMP and in the worst case need to have their
baeries disconnected and rebooted. There will be many abandoned
vehicles, baeries, and plenty of fuel not long aer an EMP, resulng
in a great plaorm to run an inverter on and provide AC power.
Why not just use a generator? There are several reasons for that.
First of all, a generator is very loud and will draw way too muchaenon to your home. It sends a signal that whoever is within
distance has fuel and something that needs to be powered, and
perhaps supplies and things of value. If need be, an inverter can
be run silently and with just the car baery (even with the baery
temporarily taken out of the car) to power something with no noise
at all. Also, an inverter can be moved from baery to baery
usually these units are not much bigger than a decent size phonebook. A generator is not portable and requires fuel as well. An idling
car is nearly silent unless youre right on top of it. Finally, an inverter
is easily shielded in case of EMP and can be put away for storage; a
generator represents a larger footprint and cannot be shielded from
the eects of EMP as easily.
#8 FIREARMS
When seconds count, the
police are only minutes
away and thats in the
best case scenario. Aer
an EMP strike, expect
most rst responders to
be dealing with their own
loved ones rather than
yours. Realize that the rao
of rst responders specically police - to the general populaon
is very small. A city like Los Angeles, for example, has about 10,000
ocers to keep 5+ million people in check. Not very favorable odds!

It is incumbent on youto defend your family that responsibility
does not belong to the re or police chief, nor to the mayor,
governor, or even president. The responsibility of self defense falls
squarely on your shoulders. While there are other methods of selfdefense beyond rearms, none are as praccal, eecve, or easy to
use in defense of life or property. An 80 year old man in a wheelchair
can pick up a revolver and kill an intruder he needs very lile
training to accomplish this task. Consider that maral arts and less
than lethal training, while denitely having a place, cannot ulmately
replace rearms completely.
Post EMP, anyone of age that can carry a rearm should. Pistols will
most likely be the go-to gun for self defense. Although pistols lack
in just about every comparison to ries, they have two redeeming
features; they are available and concealable. Part of life aer an EMP
strike will involve keeping a low prole, and having an assault rie
slung across your back is not in keeping with that thought.
Bale ries in military calibers such as 5.56 NATO, .223 Remington,
.308 Winchester, and 7.62 x 39 should be kept at home and reserved
for the defense of your house from defensible posions. A rie has
capacity, knock down power, and range going for it, which makes it a
great home weapon.
Two other types of rearms bear menon: a scoped rie for hunng
and other targets out to ranges beyond that of a bale rie, and ashotgun for close quarters defense. A scoped rie in varmint calibers
such as .22LR makes an excellent hunng weapon; .243 and similar
calibers allows one to hunt deer and people if need be, and .308 is
perfect for both man and beast alike. Shotguns, on the other hand,
should be taccally oriented with magazine extension tubes and
slings with integrated bandoliers so as to carry ammo right on the
gun.
Each magazine fed weapon ought to have at least ve magazines per
weapon, more if you can aord it. Primarily focusing on magazine
fed weapons allows one to carry plenty of ammo and recharge the
weapon quickly. With the advent of magazine fed shotguns like
the Saiga 12, that philosophy carries forward to shotguns as well.

EMP SURVIVAL
Magazines are reliable, hold lots of ammo, and can be replaced in
seconds.
Most modern weapons dont really require spare parts per se, butmake sure you have cleaning supplies, as they sll need maintenance.
Also, keep your familys weapons in common calibers i.e., everyone
carries .45 ACP pistols and 5.56 NATO ries, for example. This allows
ammo interchangeability in case of emergencies. Ideally, everyone
will have the same model of weapon so as to make the magazines
interchangeable.
#7 AMMUNITION
The reason that ammunion is more important than
rearms in this top ten list is because ammunion
will be a commodity aer an EMP strike, potenally
more so than weapons. In your preparaons for EMP
(or any other disaster for that maer), you should
seek to stock lots of ammunion in many variedcalibers. This is because historically, ammunion
has been a barter item and doubles as currency in
some cases. Think about it for a moment when
cash is useless and silver cant be eaten, a box of .22
Long Rie is more valuable than both to a desperate
father. It can be used to hunt for food or fend o
bandits. Ammunion is literally worth its weight in
gold.
From a praccal standpoint, you should seek to
purchase your rearms in what are called common
calibers. What is common in your neck of the woods is dependent
on several factors. A rie chambered in .243 Winchester, for example,
might be extremely common in deer country, but totally uncommon
elsewhere. You want to accomplish two goals when buyingammunion: 1) buy ammo that others want, and 2) buy ammo in
calibers that you might readily be able tofnd.
What do we mean by nd? Its prey simple, really. By purchasing,
say, a handgun in a common military or law enforcement caliber

12/20
EMP SURVIVAL

Copyright 2012 Peak 10 Publishing LLC | www.Peak10Publishing.com
such as 9mm, 40S&W, or .45 ACP, you will ensure that there will be
a plenful supply of such ammunion on the bodies of dead soldiers
and cops. While it sounds extremely morbid, one must accept
the baleeld mentality that not all of these people will survive.Addionally, many of these calibers are widely available at sporng
goods stores. This makes oddball calibers like .38 super, .357 SIG, and
.45 GAP, to name but a few, seem extremely unappealing.
Sure, some people who have weapons chambered in odd calibers
claim that hand loading and home reloading is the answer, but that
has some serious drawbacks. First and foremost, one must possessthe powders, primers, dies, and equipment to reload, and second,
this setup is not parcularly mobile in case one needs to move
quickly.
Lastly, the queson inevitably arises as to how much ammunion
should be kept on hand. The answer to this is simple, but in two
parts: 1) however much you can aord, and 2) however much you
can t in your home. Realiscally, each bale rie and pistol should
have several thousand rounds per frearmon hand. If you suddenly
have to move, you will not be able to take all of this with you, as it
will weigh too much. If you are dug in place in your home, however,
youll be able to keep more ammo on hand than you can reasonably
expect to shoot its limited only by available space and funds.
#6 HAM RADIO
A HAM radio is an
extremely versale
and adaptable
communicaons device
it essenally has no
parallel. Unlike walkie-
talkies that are edto preset frequencies,
HAM radios can receive
and transmit on

EMP SURVIVAL
thousands of frequencies spanning many bands. Addionally, they
can talk from radio to radio, or via repeater, to just about anywhere
on the globe and some places o the globe (like the Internaonal
Space Staon). HAMs are easy to learn and the individual units arerobust and rugged.
The best part of HAM radios is the HAM radio operators themselves.
Extremely emergency and disaster oriented, HAMs are usually
prepared for just about anything, including EMPs. HAMs, being
for the most part private cizens, have the ability to set up
mobile repeaters and antennas aer a disaster to bring valuablecommunicaons into an area. These repeaters can e one HAM radio
to another in a daisy chain that can potenally span the connent.
HAM radios also have the ability to listen in and communicate on
frequencies used by rst responders. No one should be without this
potenally life saving device.
#5 LAPTOP COMPUTER
The Internet is most
likely the most powerful
tool of knowledge ever
invented. A computer
accessing it can literally
obtain any informaon
a person wants. Aer an
EMP strikes, the Internet
will clearly be inaccessible
no power means no
Internet. So whats a
person to do? Get the knowledge right now while its sll available!
An ultra prepared person knows that transporng around volumes
of paper books is impraccal and heavy all of that informaon plusmore can t on the hard drive of a laptop which can be stored in
a shielded enclosure unl needed. One can even burn this data to
opcal DVDs, as they are impervious to the eects of EMP.

#4 SOLAR CHARGER
An EMP will most likely severely damage the power grid, but that
doesnt mean that there wont be power available aer it strikes.
Some wise preppers will have saved some crical devices that needpower to run and will need a method of charging them. Certainly, the
list of devices above will be excellent choices for survival and will be
easy to charge.
A solar charger is the answer to most charging needs on devices like
radios, laptops, and phones. There are many dierent types and
models of chargers available. Select one that has a combinaon ofgood capacity and a variety of connecons so as to charge a variety
of devices. These units consist mainly of a fold out solar panel with
a regulator and a cable that charges the unit in queson. Many of
these are reasonably portable and can be folded up and stored inside
a shielded container so they are ready to use just minutes aer an
EMP strike.
A decent solar charger should ensure that you have the ability to
charge your phone, radio, laptop, or other small device for literally
years aer the me that the power grid goes down. Addionally, no
work is required to charge anything other than leaving the unit in
bright sunlight. A solar charger will be one of those wish you had
devices aer an EMP strike!
#3 FIRST AID KIT
The me period
subsequent to an EMP
strike will be a me
where people will live and
die based on the kind of
medical care available.
Due to the condions andthe general lack of preparedness
of most of the populace, one will see
people die of the silliest, most treatable things
simply because they do not have access to the proper supplies.
Its only within the last hundred or so years that we have been

EMP SURVIVAL

relavely insulated from the dangers of death from things such as
minor infecons, allergies, common illnesses, and living condions.
Diseases that were once considered lethal are now easily cured
with over the counter medicaon.
It is simply because the general populaon is so unprepared that
you must make sure your kit is sound and ready for anything. Having
a rst aid kit also does not mean simply going to one of the big box
stores and buying an o the shelf rst aid kit and throwing it in a
closet, forgoen. Few rst aid kits that are store bought contain the
proper supplies for anything except minor cuts and bruises!
Your rst aid kit should focus on what is called taccal medicine,
focusing on large laceraons, puncture wounds (including bullet
wounds) and burns. These sorts of taccal injuries are the kinds of
injuries one would conceivably encounter post EMP. Injuries such as
these rely heavily on the use of compression bandages (not usually
supplied in rst aid kits), tourniquets (also not supplied in rst aid
kits) and things like sutures and blood coagulant. A tourniquet in and
of itself is a must in an austere environment where medical care is
not immediately available.
Your rst aid kit should also have the support of your family doctor;
ask your doctor if he or she will consider dispensing a prescripon for
basic anbiocs and painkillers, since these items are potenal life
savers in the case of an emergency. The advent of basic anbiocshas saved millions of people what was once a deadly infecon can
now be wiped out with a couple of pills. Get this stu now and have
your doctor instruct you on basic dosages for anbiocs as well as
their use.
Rounding out your rst aid kit should be a healthy supply of any
prescripon medicaons you or your family takes, or even relaves
who you envision staying with you aer an EMP, as these will clearly
not be available.

#2 WATER PURIFIER
You can only live around
three days without water
-it is essenal to life. AnEMP will knock out the
power grid and this will
lead to a lack of water in
a very short me. This
is because the water
puricaon process
requires a healthy doseof electric power to funcon. Also, water pipelines use complex
electrically actuated valves and sensors which will not work aer an
EMP, meaning that there might be water in a tank up the hill, but it
will have no way of making it down to your house.
The safest way of purifying water is to boil it, but this takes lots of
fuel and is a labor intensive process. Many people will try to drinknaturally occurring surface water aer an EMP strike, water such as
ponds, lakes, rivers, and creeks. These waters are usually teeming
with pathogens and as a rule, no maer how clear or clean the water
looks to the naked eye, it must be puried. Drinking unpuried water
exposes you to deadly bacteria such as cryptosporidium and other
nasty beasts that result in anything from sever dysentery to death.
A water purier will be worth its weight in gold aer an EMP strike.
Most of these handheld units work on the principle of a piston
forcing dirty water through a membrane; what comes out the other
end is clean and safe to drink. These devices are portable and light,
meaning you can slip one in every backpack carried by the family.
While the amounts of water these lile devices put out are suitable
only for an individual, thats just ne as two or three of these
would supply the drinking water needs of an enre family on themove. These dont require any power but do require a supply of
replacement membranes, which of course you should obtain in bulk
when you buy the unit.

Lastly, having a water purier and the ability to treat your own water
means that you can carry less water, which is opmal especially
when youre on the move. Water is one of the heaviest things youll
carry besides ammunion, so it makes sense to be able to make itwherever you go.
#1 FARADAY CAGE
The reason why an EMP is so potenally damaging is that it sends
three rapid pulses out (two of them, at the speed of light) that inducedramac but momentary high voltages and currents within anything
conducve. This means that before the protecon systems (such as
fuses and breakers) within a device can catch the over current, they
are already fried. Since none of us will have a warning that an EMP is
about to strike and when it does, it will fry electronics at the speed
of light, it is prudent to keep all of the electronic items menoned
above in what is called Faraday Cage.
Developed by Michael Faraday in the mid 19thcentury, a Faraday cage
or enclosure is nothing more than a conducve, sealed container.
This could be something as basic as a metal garbage can! The
way it works is that the electrically conducve container deects
and protects whatever is inside of it. Most American households

already have a Faraday cage at home its called a microwave oven!
Microwave ovens are nothing more than electrically shielded Faraday
cages with a microwave transmier within that cooks the food.
Since we only want the food inside the microwave to be cooked, weshield the transmier so that microwave rays cant leak out. This
same principle makes an old microwave oven the perfect Faraday
cage. Simply put all your sensive electronics within, shut the door,
and store for posterity. There are two caveats with this: rst, ensure
that whatever is placed within the microwave is wrapped in non-
conducve material such as a towel or plasc bag. Second, cut the
cord on the microwave as the E3 pulse of the EMP likes to inducehigh voltages in long conductors.
Faraday cages can be made of any 100% conducve enclosures, use
your imaginaon, and protect everything within by wrapping it in
layers of non-conducve material.
