If the bulbs have a GE identifier, you can find out the voltage.

There's no sign of any wind gen mounts on mine, but I
suspect that they were merely bolt on accessories, so if
mine had one, the traces are long gone.


From period photos I've seen, the generator attached to the left wing struts.
Here's a link to a photo of one.

In case you decide to pursue the generator idea, here's a link to a 337 filed by
the owner of an Aeronca 7A. Might help, especially if WagAero still sells this
thing.
