Hi ICamel,
Exposure time for me would not be a measly 6.5 hours. It would be 24/7 using a wave type non vented heater.
Your original post said "no CO". That is incorrect. As to safe levels, that depends on where you look.
Here is one reliable source.
"As CO levels increase and remain above 70 ppm, symptoms may become more noticeable (headache, fatigue, nausea). As CO levels increase above 150 to 200 ppm, disorientation, unconsciousness, and death are possible."
In other words, even exposure below 70 ppm can make you good and sick. At 125 it is a good bet that there will be side effects.
I will not use an unvented combustion heater. I prefer to use an electric induction cooker instead of the propane stove top.
For the reasons above, I also will not sleep with a generator running.
The Platinum Cat works well, has a thermostat and is safe. Why would anyone try to save the cost of a tank of fuel in a class A to use anything that is not vented?
