Energy Havesting - Generator questions

Not open for further replies.
I did some testing and found that at normal operating conditions the generator output around 0.5 amps at a voltage around 14 volts. I noticed the voltage increased to around 16 volts around the maximum RPM. Would this hurt the battery? If so, how would I prevent this?
The battery will limit the voltage to a safe value. It's high current that can damage the battery, 0.5A will be no problem.
