For the past few days, I've been brainstorming a lot and have managed to come up with an intriguing method. I would like some feedback just to see how viable and "foolproof" it could really be.
Years ago, cars produced enough carbon monoxide to be used as a potential method to CTB — wether it be running your car in a garage, or using a hose to funnel the car's emissions into it's cabin. Though, catalytic concerts have severely reduced the amount of carbon monoxide released, and it's not an option at this point.
But, what if you took this same method, and modified it a bit? (still using your car as the main component.) I mulled over a few things, did some research, and eventually had the idea of running a portable generator inside your car.
A few people have actually attempted this; there are several news reports detailing some deaths. While most portable generators are quite loud, "inverter generators" are much quieter, emitting a hum similar to that of an AC. This could be useful if you're attempting this in a more public space; the loud sound of a typical generator may attract people.
A lot of portable generators do have carbon monoxide sensors, which will immediately turn off the generator. Though, by the time the sensor activates, there would likely be enough CO in your cars cabin to knock you unconscious. Even without the generator running anymore, the carbon monoxide would still engulf the cabin and kill you. With enough work and tinkering, you can disable these sensors if you really wanted to. It's just a matter of knowing what you're doing.
You could technically use this generator method in any confined space, like a small room or somewhere similar. My idea was to do it in your car, as you could listen to music or maybe park and watch the sun come up, but it could really be used in any place where the carbon monoxide could rapidly build up.
