FWIW I ran measurements on several Delco 6 volt generators on H's, M's and my Minnie Mo U. With the adjustable 3rd brushes set in the "maximum output" position, the field terminals grounded (to get full output...) the generators cold and the armatures turning at full RPM, measured outputs ranged from 13 to 16 amps at 7 volts. Outputs dropped off by several amps as the generators warmed up.

That equates to around 100 watts max cold. However 70 - 75 watts is probably a more realistic continuous "working" output.

Compared to modern 12 volt alternators (a typical 100 amp alternator is good for about 1,500 watts) the old 6 volt generators are not much!
