Yes it is a little pot on the side of the circuit board. You can get in trouble trying to mess with that circuit wiring soldering etc, without frying it. Kind of expensive risk /reward. IMO leave it be. It also has some connection to the switch in the other hole in the side.
They used to make one with an external knob that is a lot easier to work with, but this one works too. You don't actually change the voltage very often. I would leave mine at 14.8 and use the OEM converter for any 13.6 mostly.
I have a Trimetric that does my amps etc.
True. It will certainly void the warranty, and there is a risk of damage. That said, if I mess it up I can buy a replacement and still not have spent what I would on a TrueCharge. I can't imagine it would be harder to solder than replacing a soldered power jack on a multi-layer laptop motherboard as I've done a couple of times.
For the moment it will be used completely portable, with allagator clips. The remote voltage adjust mod, permament mount and wiring can all be done later. Sometime when I have a lot of time to do whatever I want. Like during a camping trip. :D
