Do you care about weatherproofing? With many doors, the last bit of travel makes the top part of the door "jam" forward and seal the door. If the door was vertical the first few feet, you likely woul

If it's a gel-cell (I thought I read that it was?) then it might be ok. I had a friend leave a door open on my wife's Miata when he was using it and we were away. When I returned, the battery was at
