My Complete EEBD N2 Method
This is my full plan, from start to finish. I need to follow it exactly.
I put this together to remember everything and because I'm seeking feedback ,criticism.Be as critical as you can please.

Phase 1: Equipment and Setup
My Gear:

N2 cylinder, regulator, Scott ELSA EEBD hood, and hose(orange hood)
My outdoor recliner.
My two-piece luggage strap with click buckle.
Two stretch cord straps for my wrists.
Two regular luggage straps for my legs.
Leak detection fluid(Snoop is safest?) and a spanner.
Clear, lightweight, reinforced 6mm ID hose (80g/100m), 2.5m long.(roughly 1/4" ID)
6mm OD Dual-barb connector and Oetiker stelpless single ear clamps and Knipex clamp tool.

My Hose Setup:
For my setup, I cut off the original connector(used hose cutter) from the EEBD's 1m hose and used a dual-barb to join it to my own extension hose.

Connecting to the EEBD: I pushed the new hose onto one side of the dual-barb and what was left of the original EEBD hose onto the other. To secure it, I used one Oetiker clamp on each end of the dual-barb and crimped them down tight.
Connecting to the Regulator: The other end of my 2.5m hose pushed straight onto the built-in barb on my flowmeter regulator. For extra security at this critical point, I used two Oetiker clamps on the connection to the regulator output.
The whole setup is now a single, lightweight, and sealed line from the regulator to the hood.

Leak Test (Do this way before):

Cylinder valve CLOSED, regulator OFF. Hand-tighten regulator, then give it a half-turn with the spanner.
Squirt leak fluid on the regulator joint. Crack the cylinder valve 1/4 turn. Look for bubbles. If it bubbles,
After you have safely released the pressure using the Close Cylinder Valve -> Turn Regulator Knob OFF -> Wait sequence, you can now address the leak.

Here is the next step:

Step 4: Fix the Leak

• Loosen the Connection: Use the spanner to loosen the leaking connection (either the regulator-to-cylinder or the hose-to-EEBD).
• Inspect and Re-seat: Carefully inspect the surfaces. Make sure there is no dirt or damage on the threads or the sealing faces. Re-seat the connection, ensuring it is perfectly straight.
• Re-tighten: Hand-tighten the connection first. Then, use the spanner to tighten it further. For the regulator-to-cylinder connection, a good rule of thumb is no more than one full turn after the parts make contact. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the seals.

Step 5: Re-test for Leaks

You must test the connection again to ensure you have fixed it.

• Apply Leak Solution: Apply fresh leak detection solution to the connection you just tightened.
• Crack the Valve: Slowly open the cylinder valve just a small amount (about 1/4 turn).
• Observe for Bubbles:Watch the connection carefully.
  • If there are NO bubbles: The leak is fixed. You can proceed to test the next connection or finalize the setup.
  • If there are STILL bubbles: The leak persists. You may have a damaged washer, a cross-threaded connection, or a faulty part. In this case, you would repeat the depressurization process and try again, or you may need to replace a component.

Open the valve more, set flow to 25 LPM. Squirt fluid on the hose-to-hood connection. Look for bubbles.
If I find a leak, do as earlier(I have to release the pressure: Close valve, turn regulator OFF, wait for the hissing to stop etc).
Ensure no leaks!.

Phase 2 My Meds
Day Before: A standard dose of a triptan for migraine prevention.
Day Of (counting down to zero):
-3 to -2 hours: A standard dose of an extended-release opioid analgesic.
-2 hours: A maximal dose PPI (e.g., esomeprazole).
-1 hour: A standard dose of a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic (Z-drug).
-1 to -2 hours: A standard dose of a prokinetic agent (e.g., domperidone).
-45 minutes: My regular dose of a LABA/LAMA/ICS combo inhaler and 40-60ml of a liquid antacid.
-30 minutes: 2-4 puffs of a SABA rescue inhaler.
Important: Don't crush any of these pills.

Phase 3: Getting Set Up and Restrained
Set my chair to a 45-degree angle. Get the N2 and hood where I can reach them.
Strap my legs to the chair with the two luggage straps. Snug, not tight.
Do the wrist/torso strap setup (the loop-through method):
Take the two wrist loops, hold them together.
Feed the ends of my click-buckle luggage strap through both loops.
Wrap the whole thing around my hips, low on my waist.
Bring the two buckle halves together in my lap. Do not click them yet. Just hold them together.
Do a final check. Make sure I can still reach the N2 valve.
Phase 4: The Final Procedure
Hold the hood up and let it fill with N2.
Take one last deep breath of air.
Put my head into the hood.
Breathe out all the way, inside the hood. The exhaust valve will handle the CO2.
Get the inner mask sealed tight on my face.
Take my first deep breath of N2.
As I'm breathing, bring my hands down and click the waist buckle shut. This locks everything.
Put my hands in my lap and just keep breathing.
Phase 5: The Timeline
Out in a bit!.
Gone in 4-6 minutes.

I'm not sure if I got the leak testing pressure release method right?.
In fact I'm not sure about any of this! Lol ,just doing my best atm so please, please let me know if something seems wrong.
The harsher the criticism the better).
I'm not encouraging anyone by posting this ,I'm asking for views,thoughts,criticisms because I have nerological issues and find it hard to think etc.

Same with me but no drugs
