   * resistance in the circuit causes apparent voltage to **sag when discharging**
   * likewise, resistance causes apparent voltage to **rise when charging**
-  * some sag/rise is normal. Circuits with excess resistance can cause apparent voltage to be off enough to affect performance
+  * some sag/rise is normal. Circuits with excess resistance (undersized wiring, iffy connections) can cause apparent voltage to deviate enough to affect system performance
   * voltage sensing can correct for sag/rise (within limits)
+  * [[https://www.bluesea.com/resources/1437|Blue Sea's documentation]] provides guidance on designing circuits with acceptable levels of voltage sag.
+  * sag is a function of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm%27s_law|Ohm's Law]]((in ''V=IxR'' form))
