It's important to measure the voltage AT THE BATTERY. Do to a small amount of resistance in the wiring, measuring the voltage anywhere other than the battery terminals will show a slightly lower potential than what the charging system is actually putting out.

That's exactly what I was gonna say. Actual voltage will vary somewhat at different places in the vehicle wiring depending on exactly where you're taking a measurement, how much current that circuit is conducting, and the resistance of the related wiring. You may well have no problem at all.
