SKU: MD-CLOAK
The Mission Darkness™ Smart Meter Cloak uses military-grade Faraday technology to block harmful RF/EMF radiation emitted by smart meters — preventing those emissions from penetrating into your home or building. Built from dual-layer stainless steel mesh with a faraday compression gasket, it provides the highest achievable shielding for an exterior-mounted meter. As an added benefit, the Cloak also shields the meter's LCD display from UV exposure and heat damage, extending its operational life.
Smart meters constantly emit RF radiation in close proximity to your home. Since they can't be removed from your property, shielding is the only way to reduce your exposure. The Smart Meter Cloak is purpose-built for this — and also protects the meter's LCD display from sun damage as a secondary benefit.
Socket-type smart meters installed in hot, sunny climates face a well-documented problem: their LCD displays burn out prematurely from direct sun exposure. Direct sunlight dramatically accelerates LCD degradation, leading to faded, unreadable, or completely blank displays. Major federal metering infrastructure suppliers have acknowledged rampant LCD display failures in hot regions worldwide. The Smart Meter Cloak is the most practical, cost-effective solution to protect and prolong LCD display life.
LCD crystals are highly sensitive to prolonged UV exposure and heat. Socket meters installed on south-facing walls in hot climates — Arizona, Texas, California, Florida, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa — routinely fail years before their expected service life due to display burnout. Blank screens mean technicians cannot read meters manually, driving up truck roll and replacement costs.
The Smart Meter Cloak's stainless steel mesh lid and body act as a continuous shade barrier and UV block for the meter's display face. By significantly reducing direct solar load and UV penetration, the Cloak extends LCD service life by years while simultaneously blocking RF emissions. A single low-cost cover prevents expensive meter replacements and unplanned field visits.
Any organization or individual responsible for maintaining metered infrastructure in sun-exposed environments benefits from the Smart Meter Cloak.
No electrician required. No grounding wires. No contract violations.
The Smart Meter Cloak is engineered for permanent outdoor installation with zero maintenance. Every material is chosen for longevity in harsh conditions.
- Double layer 1/6" stainless steel mesh — extreme shielding strength, won't deform under impact
- Faraday compression gasket — RF-sealing lid closure with zero signal leakage over time
- Two stainless steel lid latches — secure closure, easy tool-free access for meter reads
- No rust, no corrosion — performs in rain, heat, humidity, and UV exposure for years
- Two foam strip sizes included — accommodates varied meter diameters across US and Canadian utility types
Utility technicians can open the hinged flip lid and view the meter screen through the top mesh layer at any time without removing the Cloak or disrupting its seal. Fully compliant with utility access requirements — no service contract violations.
- Hinged lid opens fully for unobstructed meter access
- Top mesh layer maintains EMF shielding even when lid is open
- No tools required to open — utility workers can access instantly
- Relatch in seconds to restore the RF seal after reading
The Smart Meter Cloak installs directly over your round socket meter — no grounding wires, no modifications, no contract violations.

Materials & Construction
Compatibility Note
The Smart Meter Cloak fits all round socket-type smart meters in the United States and Canada. It is not compatible with rectangular meters used in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, or Europe.
Complete installation in under 10 minutes with a screwdriver. Wear gloves when handling stainless steel mesh.
Important Note
The Smart Meter Cloak reduces EMF emissions by covering the outside of the meter. Since meters are affixed to exterior walls, complete enclosure is impractical — the Cloak provides the highest achievable shielding for this installation context. No grounding wires are required.
The only smart meter cover that blocks RF emissions and protects your LCD display from sun damage — engineered for permanent outdoor installation with zero maintenance.
