Is the "more than 15 v " with the battery connected to the generator or when
disconnected and open circuit?
The simplest solution is probably a series resistor to limit the charge to
about 1 amp or less which should not upset a reasonably sized battery.


Try a 21W car bulb and measure the current.

What? This is gibberish.


Hmmm. Makes perfect sense to me. Maybe you could ask a question about
what you don't understand, and then we can all learn something.

Limiting the charging current to avoid damaging the battery is
certainly a workable approach.
