Its easy Woopy
A pulse motor is not just a motor. Based on your timing it is also a generator. How much the coils generate is based on your timing.
Usually to make them work you fire the coil after the magnet has past the coil, you push it away. But leading up to that the magnet is charging the coil.
That charge is good current that will flow to ground or to recovery. So it works for you. A pulse motor on its own has very little back emf until you reach really high voltage. So the charge in coil contributes to the overall power of the motor.
Once you stop generating, by removing the coil, that coil becomes a normal inductive load. It does not contribute.
If you were to unhook it your amp draw would go back down. But just removing it from the permanent magnets does you no good.
Probably (I have never tested) if you were to close the inductor by adding metal in a magnetic loop around your coil (Like transformer) Your draw would go back down.
Hope that helps.
