Les is correct. A generator or alternator is nothing more than a wattage machine. Consider a generator with a "rated" output of 13.6v @ 65amps = 884 watts with a 12v voltage regulator and a 12v battery. That same generator will have a output of 884 watts at 19.8v@44.5amps with a 18v voltage regulator and a 18v battery. That same generator will have a output of 884 watts at 26.4v@33.5amps with a 24v voltage regulator and a 24v battery. That same generator will have a output of 884 watts at 39.6v@22.3amps with a 36v voltage regulator and a 36v battery., etc. The voltage regulator controls the field voltage to the generator thus regulates the amperage output. But the generator is still only rated at 884 watts no matter what voltage is input. Thats why it's called a voltage regulator folks!!! and is a self excited generator. T_Bone
