Last time I looked at batteries 6volt were still around although not
too many but there are definitely a few bikes that used them and I
think some lawn equipment and such too. I've not personally seen a
generator that had one but it's certainly probable. To be honest most
of the generators I've seen needed some SERIOUS juice to turn over
often having motors that would look at home in something like an
AC4400CW....
