EMP “bin”

So a couple years ago I picked up a galvanized metal trash can to use as a make shift faraday cage. The idea is I have a lot of outdated flashlights and some other stuff that instead of dumping why not just store away “just in case.” I view a true emp scenario as a high acuity low probability event and as such I don’t want to expend many resources on dedicated peeps (ie extensive shielding or a dedicated emp BOV).

I currently have two emp/faraday bins.
#1:
Boafeng HT and chargers
SureFire led
Backup aa led
Backup backup aa led

#2:
Multiple aaa and aa lights, led
Multiple d lights, led
SureFire g2L
Multiple p60 and p90 bulbs
Multiple p60l backup led bulbs
Am/fm/wx hand crank radio
2x cb handhelds with wx
2x frs handhelds
2x solar panels (6w and 1.5w 12vdc)
Aa/aaa charger, enegerizer “chusb” model

I don’t expect to live 21st century in the event of a worst case scenario but like I said, if it’s just sitting unused why not protect some of it. With that in mind Any thoughts on mandatory additions that I should add?

As far as actual protection the putter case is a galvanized steel trash can with all seams/holes sealed with at least two layers of metallic hvac tape. The lid is sealed to the can with two layers of metallic hvac tape. Some of the contents are protected with nested foil/insulation but most are simply insulated from the can and otherwise unprotected.
