Is it safe to sleep next to this battery in a small enclosed area?

I would say yes since it suffers poor cell construction leading to low or insufficient voltage.Just dont let it near your wallet.

I would have no qualms sleeping in a small enclosed area next to this battery. There is no venting of gasses due to gel construction rather than lead acid. Nevertheless, small enclosed areas should always be well vented for maximum safety. CO or CO2, which are odorless, will kill you.

The device will go into sleep mode but I am not sure if it is a good idea to leave it charging.

Yes, no problem. Recommended so you don't run out. I keep it plugged in when using.

No.But it really depends on where the safe is located. As long as its in a heated & cooled space it should be ok.

i guess if you want to be absolutley safe about it, you could install a circuit breaker. i run my direct off the battery, works fine.

Sorry, that would be better answered by CTeck Support, there are temp and ventilation concerns for the areas where you charge the batteries. So honestly I am not sure.

I have no problem at all with this. I use it to keep my spare battery charged.

I don't know exactly how low they will tolerate but I've had mine out in minus -20 degree temps without any problem, its best to use the external 6 volt lead acid battery in its weatherproof enclosure, I also cover the battery case with a plastic bag, this is what I do, I live in upstate central NY , Good Luck and if I can be any more help, just ask Sincerely Mary

No It needs to be protected from the weather, you might build a small insulated enclosure to house it and the battery.

I know if you leave it plugged in all the time it can end up ruining the battery. But if that is not the case then I would contact the manufacturer.

It's not extremely loud so it won't be distracting, but I would recommend a good battery because mine died after a few uses.

Not that I can tell. It is where I store it and the battery is working for me

I have never really left it on long enough for the battery to die. I do take the computer to work each day. It is left on from 6 am with the lid closed, I use it for an hour or two at work during nap time. I turn it on at home and use if for half an hour before plugging it in.

Small, but not too small. Set the power saving option to "off" as it tends to fall asleep.

Ya I think it would be fine. You might want to put a battery spacer in there see the battery doesn't move back and forth, but other than that you should be good!

I have ours in a fenced in enclosure immediately behind our attached garage where the central AC unit is located. When the windows on the back of the house are closed, it is barely discernable, even operating at full draw on the system (genny engine RPM up high.) Given that it is a back up generator and it is expected to be heard as part of the fact that there is a need for it to begin with, it's not at all bothersome.

The battery compartment is tight but I have no problem plugging it in. I just bought one more as a spare since I have 6 APC back up units in my office. I hope the battery will last for a few years ,if so it will definitely be more cost effective than buying a new unit.
