Oh--ok.
Just never ran across one of those without one, my yard is kinda big so I buy the larger ones to use.
Neat Idea using one coupled to the high speed alternator you built.

WXYZ; If you hooked up a wind vane governer (robbed off an old lawn mower engine) you could probably regulate it to put out a steady usable 2-300 watts @60hz. The clutches are fairly cheap and consist of an outer hub with an inner slotted iron disc which usually screws on to the crankshaft of the weed wacker engine. Or maybe you'll get lucky and find a discarded one with one already on it.
