I don't think you can neglect inductance, though, for a couple reasons.
Agreed; however, the point was that the energy input decreases with increased RPM. The inductance must be delt with as the RPM increases. If you plot the current rise in an inductor with varying voltage you see that you can push the current quicker with higher voltage up to the limits of the EM insulator resistance (and of course, the power supply voltage). It makes for a non-trivial triggering circuit! Terry
