Sure seems like 14 is too high. You know what your TV feels like stopping without the trailer on the back. It should feel very similar with the trailer on, when the brake controller is properly adjusted.
The trailer brakes should be stopping the trailer, and the TV brakes should be stopping the TV. Don't want the trailer brakes also stopping the TV, or you will wear-out the trailer brakes more quickly. Don't want the TV doing all the work of stopping the trailer, as then your emergency stops will be much longer. Fine-tune until it feels like the trailer is neither pulling or pushing the TV when brakes are applied.
