Now, let's have the alternator charging the battery, and have it at 15.5V or so ... now I have 3.8 volts across that current determining resistor ... 12 times the "design". OUCH. 15.5V is not a normal charging voltage, and if sustained will ruin the battery. It would only be a fault condition with a regulator gone bad. I think you can safely calculate dropping resistors based on 14.5V max. Fred F.
