    You can over charge a battery if there is a fault with the alternator or the battery charger. The battery charger should stop charging when the battery is fully charge. So you are pretty safe.....for now!

    yup IC regulator, nagagawa yun..... pero pag napansin mo na laging basa ang baterya mo yun ang first sign, pag lomobo, palitan mo na agad, malapit na yun pumutok!

    to find out if your alt is overcharging you should have a volt meter , here's the reading; over 14.8v at 1500rpm and that's without load

    Have your alternator fixed as soon as possible. (Again, as others here have said, it is the [ic] regulator which is most probably defective)... Else, your battery will be fried, just like what I had in one of our vehicles....
