I already have a plan and will execute it whenever feels right. There are still some aspects where i have my doubts though and see even the forum being torn over it.
1. Disposable bbqs
I heard they work fine mostly, but on the other hand ive also seen a lot of posts saying charcoal quality is the most important factor. I know someone sent me an article of someone dying on accident from putting a disposable bbq inside a tent.
2. Let the CO levels build up or not
This has ultimately been on my mind a lot lately. People here usually recommend a CO meter and reaching atleast 10000 ppm. However zanexx didnt let the CO build up, neither did most of the south east asians who tried this method. It just sounds like if i let the CO build up and then enter, either the CO will escape or will be quickly transformed into CO2 which is bad. Are there any confirmed deaths with "letting it build up" or not?
Also important note: if i do attempt then i WILL give updates here (and if you dont hear from me for a while i am dead)

Just in case the article you mention is the one in the above post, that was a portable bucket bbq, and they used briquettes i think. The instant bbq's you mention, i think often contain smaller pieces of charcoal, and can contain fillers and pre applied lighting fluids. They may also require different burning and cooling timings to bigger/denser briquettes.

Personally, i have bought Weber briquettes like Zanexx, and plan to burn them in the chimney starter using the same timings Zanexx used. As far as i know, Zanexx is the only confirmed successful CO goodbye thread, so i just plan to follow it as closely as possible.

I also wanted to get in the tent at the same time as the charcoal, like Zanexx and the woman in the article who accidentally died. But Zanexx had benzos and without them i think it will be very hard for me not to panic when i start feeling short of breath, like Zanexx mentioned in their last message. If i can't get benzos, letting the CO build up for 30+ mins, and passing out very quickly seems the better option.

Sorry for not having clearer advice. Hopefully, others might be able to help more.

I'll simply try it with disposable then its worth the risk. And thank you for your input either way.
