I have a 582 grey head model 90 My volt meter at 3000 rpm reads 14.25 and 5500 is 15.50 I replaced it with one from CPS # 866-080 the same one that ran for 125 hr and it reads the same could it be bad or is there something else to look for I put new battery in  checked wire connection and grounds . Thinking of going to the 3phase one from Cps any info would help thanks.  Jerry.  Kitfox 2

That sounds like a normal no-load output

Jerry:

Normal charge is 13.8 VDC to 14.2 VDC.  As you know 15.5 VDC is too high and can overcharge the battery.  SO, the simple cure is to Turn Something On!  And then read the voltage.  OR!  If you are the Electrical Type, just install a Zenor Diode with a value between 13.8 to 14.2 VDC  and a resistor to handle the over voltage.  15.5 - 14.2 = 1.4 VDC ...  1.4 VDC (at) say 3 Amps = 4.2 Watts //  1.4 VDC / 3 Amps = 0.43 Ohms...  Easy enough to get a 0.5 Ohm resistor at 5 Watts.

This will limit your voltage to 14.2 VDC for charging.  Less expensive than buying a ...
