I am guessing loose ground connection somewhere. Maybe the ground strap on the battery. Could be loose connection on the hot side also. Check your batter clamps also of course, but that is more obvious (although I have missed it before.) Very unlikely to have a bad Bosch regulator and about impossible to have 4 in a row. For a tester to diagnose "bad regulator" just means the voltage is wrong. If you have a loose or bad connection the voltage will be wrong, but only under load. So really it should say "loose connection or bad regulator."
