Generator compartment - how hot does it get?
Ok- I just picked up my Spartan 1245 on Friday and I am hating the amount of basement I lost due to having a generator. It’s turrible. I known the batteries are installed there. Will I also be able...

I assume you are talking about an onboard Onan? Yes it will get warm when running. I assume your genset is somewhat isolated. From the rest of the storage area? Mine is sort of boxed in on all for sides. But there are allowances for ventilation.
Yes, front compartment and installed Onan. It has a small space around the generator with a separate box for that. There's room above it (not much) but a fair amount of space- maybe 18-20" wide by whatever the compartment is tall. That side area is where the original batteries were.
Here's a dealer picture of it:
My batteries are lithium 12v drop-ins, so no chance for offgassing.
