 2. CJ2301 and AO3004 have high input capacity. That seems to break the voltage converter
    for WS2812.

+  - It worked on all boards in the initial test (no DCDC, supplied by USB) but this was most likely

   - **Hotfix**: Replace by BSS138. They are a known-good choice and fxk8y has some at hand.
   - Fix is needed for Q7 but it would also be useful for Q3 and Q4.
