    Default Fever the King / high-pitched whine

    Can someone with good hearing tell me if your Fever the King makes a high-pitched whine from the reel assembly while not in motion? It's about 12KHz - close to that of a CRT TV, so the older you are, the less likely you are to hear the tone. I'm 38, and thankfully still able to hear 20KHz.

    I assume the actuators are probably making the whine, and if mine is unique in making the whine, they may need to be adjusted. Something else to look into when I have the reels apart to fix the RGB LED.

    I have a Sankyo Fever Super Stadium that makes the high pitch whine you described. It's also a slot reel machine. It must just have to do with the type of circuitry they use in the reel assembly. Perhaps there are some high frequency inverter circuits in there for voltage conversion/switching power supply. On the Super Stadium the reel cage is clear and it looks like there are some coils and other oscillator type parts in there. It's probably normal if everything works properly.

    My Yoon Sona (same reel cage as Super Stadium) has the same sound so I think it is normal
