MF LED MOD - but no MIDI clock on!??!

i have no technical skills other than what this website and the members have taught me .
I have just completed the LED MOD but noticed having the MIDI clock on was effecting the way I sync tracks. Once I turned it off the LED remained on and started a new flashing pattern, one quick and one slow...
anyone experience this? is this a glitch?
everything is tested and still working fine.

here's the vid

I want to make some LED candles with these and mix them in with the pvc kind. I can't wait to melt some hot glue on the container and see how well the votive still shines through.
The tube is rather pliable and I am curious to see if the hot glue melts it a bit.
