Nobody seems to talk about the Exit Bag method on here?

I thought it looked pretty good, but it doesn't seem very popular- is there a reason for that i don't know about? Thanks

It is pretty spoken about and it's certainly viable. People usually don't like the idea of carrying a tank of helium or whichever gas chosen (and the rest of their supplies) into their place of residence, be it their family home or whatever. You need to remember that a lot of users here have to settle for methods that work quickly with little resources; sadly urgency beats the chase of perfection.

The Helium tanks today are 80% Helium and 20% Oxygen. (USA) The 20% Oxygen will keep you alive. I have a second hand, medical, Oxygen regulator. I bought a adaptor for the input side. The USA has different fittings for Oxygen and Nitrogen. I have a tank of Nitrogen. Turkey bags are available. The current problem is the output hose. Will it supply the 15 liters per minute to the bag? I have a mask that has 2 garden hose inlets. I have been trying to connect output of the regulator to the inputs on the mask.

The problem is that this method has been made complex.

Well that sucks

The method requires a lot of preparation, can be complicated and expensive. Also, a lot can go wrong, leaks, tears in the bag or removing the bag due to survival instinct kicking in.
