My electrical system is 12v on my ES.  My charging voltage normally reads 
13.5-14.5v.  I have always experienced a noticeable power surge, especially 
at night, with lighting on the panel as well as landing lights.  The pulsing 
seems to go away in the panel lights when I use the dimmers to reduce the 
lighting intensity.  However, even when the panel lights are not surging, the 
landing lights are.  Is this something that is normal?  Is my regulator set 
too high?  What voltage should I see when all is normal?

Additionally, I see an increase in voltage during cold weather (sometimes to 
15v).  

Any input would be appreciated.
