Series or parallel question.

If we take it that Daniel has done exactly as he said then the battery is superfluous once the car has started, because it is in parallel with the alternator to the remaining car circuitry and hence not, in a vital sense, part of the circuit.

I have never bothered to test mine but, having been asked to think of it, parallel connection is essential or else how can the alternator charge the battery?
