I am far from a electrical expert, so please don't hold any of this info against me. But a 6 volt generator will not put out much more than 6 volts unless the brushes are moved. I also am pretty sure that in order to get 12 volts out of a generator the windings inside have to be changed. I am probably way off, but my neighbor has owned a auto electric shop for 25 years and I do know that he has to do something to make a generator 12 volt in addition to adding a 12 volt regulator, beacuse I have watched him do it. Amps plays a big part in charging, but you can have all the amps in the world on a 6 volt system and put on a 12 volt regulator and it won't charge a 12 volt battery. I hope somone else can clear up this muddy water I have made. Thanks Bill {Antique Acres}
