New TK11 R2 whine on high setting.

[nohcho]

Hello, so i replaced my old TK 11 Q5 with brand new R2, and it whines on high setting, it is not loud, but you definately can hear it. It does not do that on low mode. Does your TK11 R 2 whine on high mode?

There are lots of other lights that exhibit inductor whine (I recall a few threads talking about inductor whine on the Fenix LD01 SS, LiteFlux LF3 XT and the NiteCore D10/EX10 lights) and generally it just varies from light to light e.g. one person's D10 might whine on max while another person's D10 is completely silent on all modes.

If it bothers you a lot, contact the vendor you got the light from and see if you can get a replacement TK11-R2. :thinking:
