You'll get nice and toasty. I don't see why you couldn't - but depending on where you do it, it will be hot.

What about a bathroom or a car? Since it's so hot, is there a chance someone would end up running out because of the heat? It seems like something that would be more suitable in winter.

I've read stories on here where the heat became unbearable. People choose the CO method because of the appearance of it being peaceful. Being in an enclosed space with temperatures rising above 100F is not peaceful at all. I think you're right. This would be more suitable in winter.

I might get so cold in my house that I'll light coal for the heat of it and use some anxyiolitics in the hopes that I forget the danger I am putting myself in. Might work, might not.

For now, my dreaded heart beats.

I think it is still possible but it's important to follow the advice in the above post. The article the poster linked is about an accidental CO death from a cool bbq being taken inside a tent 5 hours after being lit.

"Ah, so you're saying it should be left outside for 5 hours and then brought inside, right?


By the way, did you also attempt it during the summer, Xanax?"

A house would get unbearably hot in the summer too, wouldn't it? If that's the case, would someone wake up even after taking sleeping pills?

I don't think i will wait for 5 hours as the man in the linked article survived after a couple of weeks in intensive care. But it was an accidental case, so they did not tape up the vents in the tent. I plan to wait however long it takes for it to be cool enough to not burn my tent.

Zanexx said they waited 90 minutes after tipping the coals out of the chimney starter. They probably burned the coals for 20-30 minutes in the chimney starter, therefore, it was about 2 hours after lighting that they took them into the tent.

Zanexx failed their first attempt on the 25th of August and mentioned being freezing cold. Therefore, if i attempted during hot weather, i think it will take longer than 2 hours for the coals to be cool enough to take inside the tent.

So if I go in after it has cooled down, it won't catch fire?"
