Only if there is no voltage regulator in the system. The only drawback I
know of with a magneto system with no battery is that there is no load on
the battery charging circuit. As a result, and over a great deal of time,
the magnetic field in the magento armature weakens and the magnets need to
be re-magnetized. It is a fairly easy thing to do however.
