Do kerosene heaters produce low or high levels of carbon monoxide?

If you're running a kerosene heater in a trailer and you have the window cracked a half an inch and you begin to get a bad headache and feel kinda spacey, is that carbon monoxide poisoning even though the window is cracked to allow ventilation?

Answer
That's not good. I was camping one time and a lady had a kerosene heater in a tent about 20 yards from me. She died that night. They vent the exaust right into your breathing air. Not a good idea. Who wants a window open while they are trying to heat their home anyway. Better safe then sorry right?

Where can I buy a cordless magnetic-powered space heater?

One which generates the heat solely due to spin, perpetual motion, Faraday's law of induction, etc.? I thought of a model which has smaller circular permanent magnets in special positions on opposing fan blades with one large perpetual magnet on the bottom of each mini fan (6+) to create perpetual spin due to opposing magnetic fields, and one large vertically-spinning magnet attached to the fronts of each fan, which spins 'with' the fan to induce an opposing current (Faraday) into one large copper-wound coil placed in front of every spinning magnet/fan, thus, generating electricity (from each perpetually-spinning magnet on each fan creating AC in the copper coil) to heat another coil inductively which the perpetually-spinning fans then blow air over to generate heat.

Those would work well and keep optimum temperature used inside tents, camping, while outdoors when the sun goes down and the weather gets cooler and such simply by physically spinning/setting the fans in perpetual motion. Indoor uses as well.

Answer
Although it's quite easy to make a device that uses induction to generate heat and perhaps some levitation to make it all look magical. It takes an abysmal ignorance to think it's a perpetual motion device.
