Are your Flashlights EMP-protected?

This is bad for the soldier.

They used to do a lot of that, back when we used to explode atomic weapons here in America.

Some guys I knew fried a cell phone with a directed RF transmission. Admittedly, a flashlight doesn't have an antenna designed to receive EM radiation, but still...

Chilling video is chilling. Watch it with headphones. It is done in the style of "Wargames." An interesting game, the only winning move is not to play.

How about a nice game of chess?

I live just a few miles from NORAD probably the worlds largest magnet for EMP attack. close enough that whatever makes the EMP would probably kill me. LOL

At least you wouldn't have to worry about your lights. :sick2:

In addition to the antenna, a phone also has a fairly sensitive receiver (by consumer electronics standards) designed to receive and amplify faint signals that at their maximum planned levels found in the field are still many orders of magnitude lower than your acquaintances likely dumped into it. Screw up the baseband processor likely tied into the modem chip and it's probably bricked even if the other chips are unaffected by the watts of focused RF.

You would benefit from the EMP shield of the NORAD...
