Protect your vehicle with the T.R.A.P. This device protects your vehicle from EMP damage and other transients. Compatible with cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, RVs, and other vehicles, the T.R.A.P. is designed to guard against fast transients from many different sources including load changes (such as your A/C kicking on and off), conducted transients from a charging port, radiated energy from a nearby lightning strike, or an overhead electromagnetic pulse (EMP). Simply plug the device into your vehicle’s 12-Volt auxiliary receptacle (cigarette lighter) for it to start working on your vehicle. This device is hand assembled in the US and constructed from the highest quality materials.

The T.R.A.P.™ Transient Reducing Auxiliary Plug is a multi-purpose transient protection device. It is extremely easy to install by simply plugging it into the 12-Volt auxiliary receptacle (cigarette lighter).
The plug is made with bronze, nickel-plated negative contacts, gold-plated center contact, and Bakelite body. It is rated for 25 Amps continuous, much more than is needed for voltage transients. The transient voltage suppression component is ultra high reliability (AEC Q101 qualified), has a turn-on time of < 1 picosecond, and can suppress up to 5,000 Watts. The full size is 3″ long.
How can the T.R.A.P.™ be effective against an EMP when it’s so small?
The danger to vehicles from an EMP is the high voltage that is introduced on the cables from E1 and E2. Those transient voltages are extremely brief in time (from nanoseconds to microseconds) and can therefore be suppressed using small devices. This is distinctly different than the case with homes, which would also experience a powerful E1 current surge from the power grid.
Is it ok to use multiple T.R.A.P.s in one vehicle?
Yes, putting energy “traps” at multiple points in your vehicle does a better job shunting away the unwanted energy. Maximum protection is achieved by using a T.R.A.P.™ in every auxiliary power outlet, as well as using the T.R.A.P.™-B across the vehicle’s battery.
Does a T.R.A.P.™ protect a vehicle even when the vehicle is powered off?
The T.R.A.P.™ provides transient protection even with the ignition switch turned off because interconnected cable assemblies can still receive damaging energy. The T.R.A.P.™ continues to act as a high-frequency energy sink even when the vehicle is unpowered.
Will a T.R.A.P.™ or T.R.A.P.™-B drain my battery?
T.R.A.P.™ products draw essentially zero current except when there is a significant overvoltage, so they won’t drain your battery.
