A simple resistor won't limit the output voltage when the current tapers
off. (When the load resistance becomes larger.) It will still go to 16+
volts and ruin your battery.
A simple solution might be to place two, perhaps three, large diodes
(rectifiers) in series with the output.
You can easily find a diodes (or perhaps a rectifier bridge that can
wired to make two diodes, just use the + and - terminals,) that will
handle the 10 amp output. Ordinary diodes will drop ~0.7 volts each.

This might be a crude fix but some sort of variable resistor that can tolerate
10 amps at 16.5v might work. There is even a place to easily put the resistor
for easy access. The only pot on the control board doesn't seem to change
anything. Maybe using Ohm's Law the right value within a range might be found.
