I bet ya this one would do a number on the RFID chips. http://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.a ... 52&cat=168" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;sjfcontrol wrote:I believe the units used to disable the RFID tag in a store uses a strong (alternating) electromagnetic field, and the readers use a similar but weaker field to power the chip.
