The Dark Storm Defence Vehicle Protection is an ultra-duty surge protection device specifically designed to protect a vehicle’s electronics from damaging electromagnetic energy resulting from an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). Constructed using state-of-the-art metal oxide varistor technology, the Dark Storm Defence Vehicle Protectionis capable of shunting away an incredible 270,000 amps of current! The EMP Vehicle Shieldis the latest addition to the world’s first comprehensive EMP auto protection system.

The Storm One your vehicle by shunting (shorting) the over voltage coming into your vehicle’s electrical system. The Storm One will “see” the surge and react in less than 1 billionth of a second. Since the shunting is completed incredibly fast, the over voltage is drained away from the vehicle before the voltage can rise high enough to produce any damage.

The Storm One protect against indirect lightning. It also protects from unwanted transients caused from vehicle malfunctions.

Contrary to popular thinking, solar flares and CME’s will not affect vehicles. CME’s produce very low frequencies and only couple into long conductors that are miles long. In the unlikely event that a CME were to couple radiated energy into a vehicle, the The Storm One would protected.

The Storm One introduces transient that may shunt away energy from a lighting strike, preventing damage to the vehicle’s electronics.

An EMP will not destroy the Storm One . A direct lightning strike will destroy pretty much anything, including the Storm One however, this is extremely rare, as most lightning strikes are indirect and will not damage the device.

Yes, we would recommend this, to ensure that both electrical systems are protected. Also for RV with two batteries

Most car peripherals try to limit their off-state current draw to under 15 milliamps. The EMP Vehicle Shield indicator light draws 9 milliamps of current. Typical car batteries have around 55,000 milliamps-hours of capacity. Therefore, even if the vehicle sat for an entire month unused, the light would only draw off about 10% of the battery.

The Storm One attaches across a standard 12-volt automobile battery. Installation instructions will be included in the package, along with a link to a video of the installation process.

The Storm One Indicator light indicates that the unit is receiving power and therefore properly connected to the battery. If the unit is compromised, the indicator light will turn off.

Yes, the Storm One is designed to protect both when the vehicle is on or off.

The Storm One comes with a 10 -year limited lifetime warranty.

Yes, we also install on site at your home or work. Currently, this is only available in the Netherlands in the provinces of Gelderland, Overijssel and Utrecht. You can select this option when ordering. Please note that we must be notified one week in advance. The special offer price is€99.
