I came across your site as I am trying to build a regulator for my motorcycle. I have installed an AGM battery that requires a higher voltage to charge up. The regulator I have, puts out about 13 volts but it would seem I need about 14.4 volts. The regulator has a sensing wire which when connected to a 12v source on the bike, feeds about 13 volts to the battery. The sensing wire does not appear to be carrying any current, as when I put an ammeter in the circuit, does not appear to show anything. Can anyone suggest a circuit to help. When the sensing wire is disconnected, the voltage, from the regulator, goes to about 18 volts. Any help would be appreciated.
I have attached a file, from this forum but it is used to provide a lower voltage than I need.
Thanks
John
