The good news is Roger that the common failure mode for diodes is a short rather than an open. If the diode were to fail, it would most likely act as though the original wire was back in place.

What is the down side? If the diode were to fail some day
then your voltage would
climb to 15 volts and be in an over charge state at the
battery.
