Hello CPF'ers,
I've got an Olight M20-X in NW. I can detect a buzzing noise throughout all the modes. The buzzing on the low mode is very low. You have to put your ear next to the light to hear it, but it's there. When I cycle to medium, the buzzing gets louder. On high, the buzzing is the loudest, and it's very audible. Could this be something called inductor whine? Don't know too much about it. Will this wear out my flashlight faster? Does it decrease the efficiency, or output? Should I be contacting Olight, or is this quite normal and not something to worry about?
Thanks in advance,
"J" man
