Slo-mo like that often suggests a power issue.
Is the battery fully charged and in good condition?
Is all the wiring sound, the joints good and the grades of wire sufficient for the load (albeit that’s more of an issue when lighting a full blade).
Does it do it only when a blade is fitted?
This thread might help:
Anyone seen this before? (Video below).
Random boots seem to play the sound in slow motion, and also light the blade white-when-off for no apparent reason. Then the next reboot seems fine.
Video breakdown:
First boot might be a little slow - not sure, but blade seems correct;
Second boot definitely wrong - slow audio with random blade lighting;
Third boot I think is correct (Anakin’s scream sounds awful by its nature);
Fourth boot seems good.
OS is 5.9, and I’ve also tried the 7.x from Github. Spec is Bluetooth via LED pad (capacitor fitted between 3.3 volt and ground), 3mm red accent LED, smd blue accent LED, and three sub blade accents inside chassis, one of which is the crystal. So admittedly it’s a busy little install.
Off-camera, after I’d switched from 5.9 to 7.x, I booted it and got a clean boot sound, but when I entered the volume menu, the audio was in slow mo again.
I’ve tried a second SD card, formatted with proper SD formatter, and also removed all the Mac ‘ghost’ files from the SD. Battery is fully charged.
I’m not sure what else to try.
