Stator or R/R are often the culprits, but start by checking all the connectors from the stator and to the R/R to make sure they've got good connections. Also make sure your grounds have good connections as well.

How old is the battery? Many parts places will perform a battery test for free as well.

Yes, that would be the charging voltage of the R/R. What is the voltage when you just turn on the key? It's easy enough to have a battery tested.
