This circuit for example, D1

I noticed that with D1 connected, better results are achieved without the filter. It seems that the power is also feeding back to the source (the L2 back kicks) but they are stopped by D1 so there's no additional resistance in the path.
Granted, I am using a choke for L2 so that could also be the case, I will run tests with an air coil as well to confirm.
I also noticed an increased current usage with the filter connected (no diode).
Thanks.
