I don't think an automotive type regulator will work for you on this. Automotive regulators control generator/alternator output by varying the current through the windings. This is what the F terminal does. depending on the system the F terminal will either give a frequency ground (or positive)to the windings. I don't know what kind of solar panel you have but I haven't seen one that you could control what the panel puts out, only control the output with voltage control. A battery is a voltage controller in a sense. Or voltage absorber. If the job of your controllers that are giving up is to not overcharge the batteries by clamping off what voltage can get to them, then I think you are stuck with getting what is designed for it. An interesting problem.
