Subject:Thanks on the amps/voltage explain..

I learned something.  Slowly, electrical become a little less strange to
me.  I have a text I am actually reading on Marine Electrical
systems...Should have done that years ago..

   Here's a silly question:  When I start my Van (inline 4 motor, same
alternator as  a Vanagon,  if that makes a difference) the alternator light
comes on, as it should. It stays on until I rev the engine once, then it
goes off and stays off.  Why?
  Just curious..it works fine, just strikes me as odd the light will be off
at the same RPM once you rev it and let it drop back down.
