At first we thought it was an and emp from the capacitor in thestrobe's
firing circuit. (But, I don't have a faraday cage handy to test thisat the

is an emp.
Any ideas or thoughts?
I'm betting on EMP inducing eddy currents in the can.
You don't need a Faraday cage; a layer of hardware cloth
between the strobe and the can should tell you a lot.
-- Light goes through the holes in the hardware cloth.
-- Most of the EMP does not, if my guess is right.
