You are thinking amps, not volts. I have a volt meter and it is reading just over 16 volts at anything over half throttle. Just to double check and make sure the volt meter is working properly I used a fluke multimeter to double check and that is reading over 16 volts as well.

That's my thinking as well, but I dont understand why a new voltage regulator would not solve the problem.
