well, I'm having the same problem with my S5. I've been through 3 in the past 6 months.
I Keep killing the voltage regulator. I was told that it could be a faulty battery or the wiring that goes from the B-terminal to the battery. I just rewired the connection from the B-terminal to the battery (bypassing the stock one) and I'm going to see if the Alternator dies again.
IF the alternator survives longer than 2 months (that's the time it took to kill the last alternator) then I know it's the wiring. If not then I'll try another battery.
I feel your pain.
Now, IF your belts are not tensioned properly they could cause your alternator to fail. You can't have one tight and another one loose. You can't have them both on too tight and you can't have both too loose. Screwed if you do and screwed if you dont.
Double check to make sure the alternator, pullies and belts are in good shape and try avoid the issues above.

Which makes perfect sense. They are sacrificing safety either way. lol
