That is a 9 amp unregulated system that can charge in the excess of 15 volts but is still only 9 amp max.

I have a 1976 115 HP. Had it on the lake a couple of times, total about hours and the battery is still alittle above 12v. It was a new deep cycle battery this year.<br /><br />Eric

If the rectifier isn't fried the critter will usually OVERcharge the battery if anything.<br /><br />-W
