You can easily see why they got away from 6V, gens, and regs. They work good, but not everyone can make them so.

I don't agree, 12-volt generator/regulators work on essentially the same principles as their 6-volt cousins. The major reason for the changeover to 12-volt was the increasing electrical load imposed by more electrical equipment such as A/C, power windows and seats, etc. plus probably a significant savings in the cost of copper.
