There already are some up for sale at Radiant, see the link in my signature.I've heard of this problem before and I seriously don't think your driver is messed up, but I could be wrong, it really depends
I've had it happen with a hotlight and it went away as soon as the battery was re-charged. IIRC its the inductor on the board struggling to
boost the voltage when your battery depletes, and since this IS a blu-ray diode the fV is pretty damn high.
If the whining stays even with a fully charged battery, try changing your batts if you have some more on hand
Btw Euda, I want you to make Aurora c6 direct press heatsinks
EDIT: I checked your thread and it looks like your using 2 alkaline primaries. try chaging it over to a single li-ion 16340/18650

About the driver, I'm pretty sure it's faulty in one way or the other. It might fail today or in one year, but a high pitched whine coming from the driver is NOT a good sign.
Better to be safe the sorry, right?
