 **Caveats**:
-  * Only alternator charge while driving (no idling except for brief preliminary test).
+  * Only alternator charge while driving ([[rv:idling|no idling]] except for brief preliminary test).
   * Pay attention while charging from alternator to keep from overcharging the Li or holding for long periods at high [[electrical:depth_of_discharge|states of charge]].
   * You may want a manual disconnect or [[electrical:12v:alternator_charging_hvd|HVD]] to shut off alternator charging.  These can be added on the D+ wire (ignition triggered) or electronics ground wire (VSR, solenoid, or voltage-triggered DC-DC)
