Apparently the range is 15-250mhz, which is still sufficiently high to make aluminum an effective shielding material.

How can you just make the blanket statement "aluminium is effective"?
It is only effective if it is thick enough.
The frequency varies with the height, I've seen it quoted as low as 1khz.

Taking aluminium as the shield and designing to cover 1KHz, you end up with a skin depth of 5mm; effective shielding requires several skin depths,

Just to add, obviously it's better to use foil than nothing, you might be far enough away that it makes the difference, but don't assume your shit is protected with just aluminium foil because it probably isn't.
Better would be to fabricate a steel box to store spares.

It's not static, it's a pulse.

Is Holla Forums for mainstream war propaganda now? North Korea is not going to EMP the US for fuck's sake..
Ethan Gonzalez
I would. Wiping out either the east or west coast would do wonders for our nation.

you all realize… EMP means tay is gone forever?
Xavier Barnes
not if we protect certain electronics with the static protector cage thing you can make to stop EMP force
