CO poisoning by leaving natural gas heater running all night? will it work?

[dysthymia]

In my country we have natural gas heaters. A lot of people die from these heaters after closing the door and windows, going to sleep and running it all night. Unfortunately I don't have a CO meter to see how much CO it produces. You light the heater with a matchstick.

give it a try hopefully it works

This this the worst thing you can do bc this can end up with severe brain damage.

It's right that people sometimes die in their sleep from either gas heater / BBQs they moved inside their flats and so on but this is not guaranteed. I'm pretty sure if you intend to die doing it the same way then it certainly won't work. You need at least a CO meter and 8k+ppm (better 10k+ ppm) to pass out quick to reduce brain damage risks with this method.

Without co meter you can't be sure and it's very risky but you can maybe make sure to be in small area seal every outlets and make sure to not be disturbed for a much longer period of time. What do you think @Praestat_Mori

CO can kill in low concentration over many hours. The problem is you will feel sick, dizzy, headaches and such for quite some time. High concentration = quick pass out and followed by death. That is what we want in a serious CTB attempt.

Thought I might add that a lot of these newer heaters have built in CO detectors, and if that detector kicks on, heater kicks off.

I'm ok with the effects. I'll take benzos beforehand to suppress SI and maybe antiemetic + parcetamol/ibuprofen. I can have several hours of uninterrupted time (No one will come in the room). Is it ok to ctb with less amount of CO keeping this information in mind?

No bc too many unknown factors play a role here and you put yourself into an unnecessary risk of failing and suffering brain damage in the worst case. Also the room size plays a role the bigger the room the more CO you need, In a serious attempt you can't "hope" that it'll work while sleeping and people have failed attempts who sedated themselves with a lot of sedatives.

CO itself is the poison and will do the job, quickly, when you have high enough concentrations.

in the end it's up 2 you. Here's a good guide with lots of info:

Charcoal method advice

Hi, I somehow came across this site after some furious google searching over the weekend. After trying and failing other methods over the past month I came across back to the idea of carbon monoxide and decided to dig further into charcoal burning, of which there are plenty discussions on this...
