It has a manufacture date of 06/02/05.
It looks identical to this:
It has made the noise ever since i've had the UPS which is about 6 years. It has had new batts installed during that time too.
Im guessing the freq of the sound is around 10khz or so.
The noise hasn't bugged me in the past as its normally been in a noisier environment (i've just moved house).
Thanks guys, ill pop the top off again later and have more of a poke around.
