Wouldn't the lenz law have an opposite effect to that measured?
Instead of less resistance with greater v
elocity (shorter time frame)
lenz law would produce more resistance with greater velocity.
BTW Thane Heinz's contraption appears to get around lenz law as well:

An electrical engineering prof at the university of Ottawa was impressed enough
to give him some space in an student lab.
Last Feburary I and few others saw him demonstrate his device at the university of Ottawa.
