Default Power supply problem

I have a duratrax ice charger that requires 11-15v for power. I also have a 15v 10a mrc power supply to use with it. The problem is that the charger alarms out when I plug it in because it says the power supply is putting out 15.26v lol. Anything I can do about this?

Depends on your level of experience with this sort of thing.

Hard Mode: Adjust the guts of the power supply. Not easy.
Medium Mode: Put a high-amperage diode in series with the load (charger).
Easy Mode: New Power Supply

Sounds like easy mode is my best bet. Thanks for your reply.
