Hello, on the internet, there are various methods on measuring the inductance. For example,

If I want to measure the inductance of a 12V DC motor, are the two methods listed above as good as using a LCR meter? Will LCR meter be able to get more noticeably accurate measurements?

I just seen one searching google for $22.
Thanks. I am trying to save some money. I checked the reviews but it seems that some could not give accurate measurement values. Which one do you recommend?
How inductance affect the motor behavior? I read that the inductance is usually a very small value. I wonder if my simulation would behave like the real one if I just set it to some value, say 1e-4H.
How accurate do you think you need? DC motors are not that tightly manufactured. Also, you could get model numbers and research manufacturers specifications.
I need to create a model so that the computer simulated motor behaves like the real one. I was told that manufacturer cannot provide the inductance information.
