[–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 weeks ago* (2 children) Get a faraday box instead. Better would be a bag, actually… you can slip it over the top, pull some draw strings to tighten up the bottom. Do they make bags that work like faraday boxes? Edit: found something close: https://a.co/d/0gUGuVMM Edit2: this one looks like you can tie off the bottom better: https://a.co/d/0htiAqX6 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 child) That would get expensive. Get a roll of heavy duty foil and a roll of metal tape (the kind for duct work). Wrap them in a bag made of doubled up heavy duty foil. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 child) Good idea. Dont forget to put your phone in it and give it a call, to see if it’s really blocking signals. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 child) It generally does. But even if some signal escapes (like if you had to hurry and do this so it wasn’t perfectly sealed), it wouldn’t be that great a signal so communication would definitely be compromised. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago Good call. Another unreasonably expensive approach would be to paint it into a faraday cage. Maybe it can work to block visuals and comms, and don’t even have to remove the device. https://a.co/d/0aU2jhw3 permalink fedilink source parent [–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago Something opaque on the solar panel until the batteries die. permalink fedilink source parent
