Wondering about hoses and the actual set up. Looks like it takes special stuff. I see heat resistant tape failing, hoses not fitting, clamps necessary
Yeah, I had all those thoughts too... would be afraid that the seals would fail due to heat and I would wake up OR worse, a fire might start and I'd wake up in the middle of an inferno. That's why I was so stoked to see the chainsaw option dropped as I have one of those and it sounds reasonably foolproof.

There's really no need to buy an old car just for that purpose. If someone wants a more convenient approach, using their current vehicle is perfectly fine. Otherwise, if a faster result is desired, there are much more efficient devices:

Portable generator: ~0.7 minutes

Gasoline chainsaw: ~2 minutes

Gas-powered lawn mower: ~3 minutes

Gasoline leaf blower: ~4 minutes

Gas-powered pressure washer: ~2.4 minutes


With these tools, you can reach 10,000 PPM of carbon monoxide inside a closed car cabin within just a few minutes, without complications.
No need to buy an old car or debate the cost of a ppm detector.
Hi, just wondering if you left a chainsaw on idle in a tent would that work, and would it be sufficient if it ran on idle till empty?

Yes, leaving a gasoline-powered chainsaw idling inside a well-sealed tent can lead to a buildup of carbon monoxide sufficient to cause loss of consciousness and death, provided the engine runs properly, there is enough fuel, and the space is truly airtight; the gas accumulates quickly because it has no escape route, and the concentration can exceed lethal levels within minutes, even without any drop in external temperature or influence from outside factors.
