Carbon monoxide summer

[leerosa]

Its july summer. I have no other methods except my tent method. I have the regatta malawi 2 tent and all supplies needed. However, google gemini is scaring me that the tent would melt under the temperature. Here the summer night is itself 67 degrees fahrenheit. Advice needed immediately.

Well, why don't you run some tests?

I've been struggling with this, too. The low at night is 81 in my area, and day temperatures typically reach the high 90s F. I think the key is to do it at night, and make sure you let your charcoal cool adequately before putting it in the tent. Put it on top of paving stones over a pan full of water. I'm going to let it cool for 90 minutes before putting it in the tent, like Zanexx did.

Also, to help with the internal heat, if you have a small cooler - I'd fill it up with ice and use a portable battery powered fan to blow the cold air inside the tent. It should work as a swamp cooler for your comfort.

If anyone else has tips to avoid melting or flammability, I'd love to hear too.

Tent option would really become unbearable in the summer. One option is to use a bathroom and lie down inside cold water in the bathtub. This way, your core body temperature will remain comfortable at least as long as you'll be conscious. Whatever happens after deep coma would make little sense IMO since you won't notice slight discomfort from generated heat.

Google gemini has scared me so much that the regatta malawi 2 tent top itself would melt in any tempurature but we know it won't. Because zanexx used it. I think its calculating the binchotan charcoal 1000F literally. Should i do a test run? Dont want to melt the tent top though. Bottom is safe due to bricks.

Worried about top of tent.

About the fan idea, wouldnt that affect carbon monoxide. Dont want to mess with that.

I would do a test run for your own peace of mind. It might also help to layer foil over your buckets and poke holes in the foil, to control the heat.

Cant use bathroom. That would kill people. Dont live alone. Tent is only option. Either its this or drowning

How can you kill others that way? Aren't you supposed to put a warning sign outside the bathroom?

I'm not sure where you are globally, but if there's a state park near you, they should have cabins for rent. My plan is to rent a small cabin, 50 bucks a day, put my tent inside, and hopefully the AC from the cabin will keep things comfortable. Not sure if this is feasible for you, since I know you're needing to go ASAP. They should have last minute reservations.

I read a news article from my country recently, about how unfortunately a family of 4 died in a tent because they put a grill inside before sleeping
I think for this method the coals don't have to be swirling hot, just have to make sure that it's ashy and lit for a long period of time, according to guides it's best to use meters too

Carbon monoxide is a gas buddy. It wont stay in the bathroom. It will kill others residing in the house

Well, if other people are present in the house then you won't be doing that anyways. I'm talking about cases where people are alone in the home. There's 0% chance to kill someone by charcoal method inside your bathroom if you're alone in home and if you put warning signs outside the bathroom.

The thing is carbon monoxide max production is different for binchotan vs charcoal briquettes. For standard briquettes, peak production is in its cooling phase. For binchotan the opposite. Might just be better to use a 50-50% mixture.


Why is this so hard???? If nothing works. I might have to drown.


Google is scaring me ao much saying regatta malawi 2 is a small tent but its what Zanaxx used. Dont know what to do.

I just have a question. Zanaxx used binchotan in a regatta malawi tent. Why didnt the tent melt for her?
