My brain hurts when I try to understand inductance. From what you're saying Nuz I understand higher inductance means less magnetic pull?

That's not how i understand wiki's explaination -

Inductance=magnetic flux/amps
When a conductor is coiled upon itself N number of times around the same axis (forming a solenoid), the current required to produce a given amount of flux is reduced by a factor of N compared to a single turn of wire. Thus, the inductance of a coil of wire of N turns is given by:

The formula didn't paste ^ ??? Anyway, more turns means more magnetic flux per amp. Higher resistance in the winding wire but less current being drawn through it. The voltage is just to reach a desired rpm.

Sorry if this seems basic but just trying to understand. So a LV setup produces heat from amps to reach the same inductance and a HV setup produces heat from higher resistance.
