An easy way to test your car to see if it has internal alternator energizing.
I connected a volt meter to my lighter outlet. (battery)
While driving along in high gear I shut off the key.
The voltage stayed at 14 volts. So a second source is present.

I would like to set mine up to charge only when the accelerator is at zero or low battery.
