battery light flicker??
my battery light flickers on and off under acceleration and when the light starts flickering it seems like the truck starts to miss a little.
I put a new alternator and two new batteries in it this year.
light started flickering so I got out and put my meter on the battery and I have 13.8 volts engine warm and running with the headlights on.
any ideas appreciated

That light is pretty much right, something's up. Have alt tested (or consider a replacement/upgrade) and triple check the plug on the back and the harness connector very closely. Battery test also, be sure to disconnect a cable so they are tested independently, a good one will cover up for the bad on if they're connected together. Don't let it go too long, charging issues can damage the fuel injection control module.
