Here is my method on how I am planning to CTB. I would really appreciate any feedback to ensure the best possible chance of success. Thank you.
I might be confused on how the meter works. If someone could clarify I'd rly appreciate it.

Here is my method on how I am planning to CTB. I would really appreciate any feedback to ensure the best possible chance of success. Thank you.
- Set up tent. Seal all of the seems inside with flex seal & tape over that with HVAC tape. Put a tarp over the exterior of the tent. Hang signs warning others of CO & a body & to call authorities. Inside of the tent will be bricks & some blankets to lay on. My tent is a 2 person pop up with 3000mm.
- Put a total of 4lbs (2lbs each) of charcoal inside of 2 chimney burners on top of 2 different grills. Use a match to start the fire. Do this until the smoke is gone, they're ashy & either white or glowing orange. Using hardwood lump charcoal.
- Transfer charcoal from chimney burners to metal buckets with holes drilled near the bottom.
- Wearing gloves, Take metal buckets with charcoal into tent & place on bricks. Leave tent.
- In roughly 30 minutes hold breath and go into tent to check CO meter. If above 10,000 ppm, lay down and start breathing. If not, leave tent and give it more time.
I might be confused on how the meter works. If someone could clarify I'd rly appreciate it.
Questions:
- I read somebody recommended to hold breath, go into tent, and seal the inside zipper before laying down. Should I attempt to do this? Hold breath- Go into the tent, check ppm. If good, try to seal the zipper before laying down and breathing? That seems like a lot. Also if it's already at 10,000ppm does it rly matter? Won't I pass out with a few breaths and ctb within minutes?
- A lot of people recommend sleeping meds before hand. Why? If it just takes a few breaths to become unconscious then what is the point of sleeping meds? A precaution?
- Would smoking weed (thcA) immediately prior have any effect on this process?
- Doesn't soooo much CO escape by going in & out of the tent until it's 10,000ppm?
- If nobody finds me for a few days, what precautions can I take to ensure I don't cause a fire?
- Is there literally anything I can add, change, do differently to ensure the best chance of success? I know this can be SO dangerous if done wrong. And the absolute last thing I want is a failed attempt & to be a vegetable.
- This one might be a dumb question. If I take ashes (aquamated, not cremated) in an urn with me in the tent, will that cause any kind of reaction?
