i was also thinking that the increased friction due to the magnet horizontally loading the spool bearings would also slow it down.
i like the generator theory but wouldn't u need a load between the mag and the spool to complete the circuit, without it where would the energy go that gets sapped from the spool? heat up the mag/spool i guess?

tantalizing subject....

by the way hows "alumayak" coming
