Do you charge batteries with this closed? If so are there any heat issues?
Nope. It is not possible to close the lid and charge the batteries. There are a lot of people that seem to have that question though. The cart is intentionally designed so that it cannot charge with the lid closed. In fact, it won't close with the batteries left plugged in. The center rail is too high.

The SB50s are indeed rated for 50 amps. I think the student corrected the link but not the wording. We'll correct it. Thanks for pointing it out.
