LOL! I see a new market for small, portable EMP devices...which of course will all be put on the NFA list immediately.
I dunno, I would think a .44 mag with a Branes X solid 240 gr slug would work the first time, every time.
I have a couple hundred of these on my outer perimeter. I figure I'll sell the depleted batteries and left over parts on that auction site.
Yes, while robot dogs are roaming about looking to disembowel me, my primary focus will be working on that spreadsheet at the office using a remote client.
I would bet a modified cell phone could be turned into a One Time EMP, would be short range and not very powerful, BUT, it might be enough to save your life! A couple High Amp Capacitors from your local automotive stereo shop could be modified into High Yield EMP's, you just need a battery and a trigger along with a couple rare earth magnets and a simple arduino circuit and BAM, small and powerful EMP!
I've been hit several time with high something capacitors off Ingersoll Rand and Waukesha engines, Yeah buddy they do get ones attention! Probably some of the same stuff used in firing an airplane engine?
CDI (capacitive discharge ignition) - and remember, early radios used a spark gap to transmit - all across the spectrum.
I had a 1 farad 36kv capacitor for a transmitter vaporize a #2 copper wire that I dropped on it (accident). It killed my cellphone, the smoke detector in that room, and the brick power supply to my laptop. I was 3' away, the smoke detector right above it, and the laptop plugged in and charging just inside the back door. Just glad no molten copper hit me. It was only charged to 240 volts too.
I know what you guys are talking about ,, but I don't know WTF you guys are talking about . My Dad was an electrical engineer for the big Power company around here ,, Steam , Coal , and Nuclear plants within a couple hundred miles ,, but I just never picked up on that trade ,, wish I did ,, But I've got the Volt Meter he carried into Nuclear Power Plants to diagnose problems . And what surprised me about it is ,, it's not some super high powered ,, expensive unit ,, a Hundred bucks plus is all you need . It's not the unit ,, but the knowledge,,
Yea ,, I tried that one time ,, Learned all I needed to know ,, That ,, and pissin on the wire around grandpa's cow pasture ,, You know you've earned lifelong knowledge,, when you for sure know ,, you'll never do that again ,,, on purpose ,,,
Seems to me that a cargo net, or tennis court might be the best tool for dealing with drones of any sort. Create a tilt up arrangement so that they can't see it till it's too late and stand it up capturing it/them. Also they can be thrown into flying drones, taking them down. Loose netting where a window was might also capture them like a spider web.
