It's really fine. The manual doesn't go into detail because the voltage varies so much during normal operation. Like all modern Toyotas, Techstream is a key tool for the 86. I'm annoyed whenever I have to sit in the car with my laptop but I've come to accept the reality that there's no way around it.
