6v with no regulation probably will reduce the lifetime of your light considerably. Dyno lights work without regulation because the dynos put out 500mA and the emitters will withstand 1000mA. If you have a battery that has internal resistance to keep it from overdriving the emitter, it will work fine. You can overdrive modern led emitters, but it reduces their life and efficiency.
