@Rod,
Thanks for re-explaining it. I'm coming around slowly.
Also thank you qvision and Elias for the links
My hang up was in thinking that current was the amount of flowing electrons, and voltage was the speed of the electrons: not the case. Voltage is the potential of electron travel, not the speed of electron travel.
So now, when a generator coil is charged, it peaks the voltage before any current begins to flow. Thus we can have our voltage without lenz. But then the current begins to flow and as such, lenz starts to show up. So the idea is to delay the current without having to worry about voltage...?
