Default Humming Toaster

Well providing its not arcing anywhere, easily tested with an am radio,
then most likely some of the wires on the heating element are vibrating. If
the toaster is a metal body one these tend to be more prone to this I have
found. I guess eventually the element might fil due to the movement but at
present, asuming no arcing, its just an annoying thing.

Breville Lightening two slot electronic toaster, such as

Loud humming starts as soon as I put bread in and depress the lever and
stops when toast is done. Toast is still done properly. I've tried
pressing on the side of the casing and in certain places this deadens the
sound somewhat. Tried Googling but can't find any explanation.
