Does anyone know if using keyboard duster to go unconscious would work for hanging??

My method would be hanging (partial or full not sure which would work better?) Im thinking that if i put the noose around my neck and huff the duster it would render me unconscious and i would feel no pain and the hanging would finish the job without me doing anything!
Would this work??? Im wondering if i would possibly wake up again while hanging? How long would the duster render me unconscious for?

In theory it should work right?

Gas asphyxiation typically doesn't cause unconsciousness abruptly. Initially you don't notice any changes, then there is a period of 5 - 20 seconds when you feel gradual clouding of consciousness until the complete blackout occurs. When unconsciousness is near, you lose control over your body. If you can't stand normally and fall, hanging may happen before losing consciousness and you can feel some discomfort from it.

Anyway, prior gas asphyxiation should reduce the time before losing consciousness while hanging and it should reduce your sensitivity to pain or discomfort, so it can be used as an aid that helps to mitigate distress from hanging.

Choosing a proper gas for asphyxiation is important though. Many keyboard dusters contain either odorants aimed to indicate the presence of a flammable gas or bitterants aimed to discourage inhalant abuse. Such substances can make inhaling the asphyxiant somewhat unpleasant. You could want to use a better gas like food-grade nitrous oxide or R-134a (refrigerant). N2O has an additional anesthetic effect (in addition to the ability to cause hypoxia) which likely makes it better than most simple asphyxiants for the purposes of reducing discomfort.

thank you for the help! Would butane work- its very easily accessible and cheap, i would definitely prefer this. Or would the N20 whipped cream chargers be enough?

Butane should work if the smell of odorants added to it is OK for you.

When I tried N2O from cream chargers, it worked well on me. I exhaled as much air as possible and then inhaled approximately 4 liters of nitrous contained in a single charger (the gas was released into a cream dispenser and then from the dispenser into a latex balloon from which inhalation was done) and held my breath. The onset of effects happened in 17 - 20 seconds after inhalation.

If you want a stronger effect, I recommend to use 2 chargers and perform two inhalations with an interval of 10 - 15 seconds between them (full exhaling should be done before both inhalations).

Thanks for your help :) I found 100% pure butane, would that be odorless? If not then i will most likely stick with the chargers, would it be fatal alone or is it still best to combine it with hanging?

In practice it has worked.
Full should be more successful.
The duster will only knock you out for a short time. With partial, you could wake up before the noose really knocks you out.

I guess, it's hard to obtain butane without odorants, but you could try ))

In order to CTB with asphyxiation by butane or N2O alone, you have to use something like a plastic bag (with proper seal around the neck) which would prevent inhaling atmospheric oxygen. This is my method of choice (I gonna use N2O when my time to CTB comes).
or is it still best to combine it with hanging?
I think, if done right, gas asphyxiation with a sealed bag can be nearly as efficient as combinations of sedation or rendering unconsciousness by gas asphyxiation with other asphyxiation-based methods, such as hanging or drowning.
