Went out for a walk tonight with my son, and he noticed the buzzing sound coming from my DQG Tiny when I put it on Turbo. I put the flashlight closer to my ear, and sure enough the buzzing sound seems to be constantly there when on Turbo, but not when it was on High. Is this a defect?
Mine made a very high-pitched whine/hiss on turbo, but I could only hear it in a very quiet environment.
I asked about it in another DQG thread and George replied that it could be the inductor on the driver. I didn’t attempt a fix.
yishenger:
yes, there does have a little drivers will make noise due to inductor, if you can do, dis-assemble it, find the inductor, resoldering it for a try (but it is not so easy to do), although the inductor is solid one, but maybe a little displacement will lead it verbration due to high franquancy.
I really liked the light and added a pocket clip and tailcap magnet. The noise didn’t bother me, but I sold it because it didn’t fit well in my pockets and didn’t get much use.
BTW, I fully disclosed the whine in my for sale post .
