  • Highly accurate inductance meter for free

    Download and install this app on Android phone:

    This is demo version which can only measure complex impedance from 100 ohms to 10k ohms, however there is an easy way to get around this:

    Step 2: build the test jig as indicated (very easy)

    Step 3: connect a 300 ohm resistor in series with the coil to be measured and set scale on app to 10khz measurement frequency. That's it. Now you can measure inductance from 1 uH to 1mH no problems. Which is good when making coils for pulse metal detector.

    It is extremely accurate. I verified this.

    For measurements from 1mH to 10mH remove 300 ohm resistor.

    It works very good.

    By putting a 300 ohm resistor in series, the software thinks it is measuring a resistor, but also displays the inductive component of the vector analysis algorithm computation. That turns out to be precisely the value of your coil under test.
