most are triggerd by the acc wire coming from a headunit but some also have a circuit in them that detects changes in voltage,when it detects a big enough drop or change in the voltage,like the car being started or the acc being turned on it will trigger the display.

are you sure its displaying 14.8 while the car is turned off? even for a new battery thats fully charged it should really only read upto 12.8 - 13.2 or something around there. it should show around 14.4 v while the car is running.
