No, an EMP will likely explode anything connected to those coils. Any aluminium light should be much more resilient since they’re pretty much a faraday cage and most things should be at the same potential.

With that massive coil in there, certainly not.

That’s the opposite of EMP-proof.
Electricity is generated by a conductor, a magnetic field, and relative motion between the two. Coils have a lot of wire in a compact space. That coil would generate a lot of electricity if hit by EMP. Possibly enough to make the light explode, or at least melt.

If it’s close enough to the source of the emp no
