Safari Developer Tools keeps crashing on open

Whenever I use Safari Developer Tools to inspect an app I'm developing, it crashes almost immediately, which makes debugging near to impossible for my IOS app...

Currently using Safari Version 11.1 (13605.1.33.1.2), Mac OSX High Siera 10.13.4 (17E199).

I have tried googling this, and it looks like it used to be an issue, but it was fixed in an earlier version but has popped back up for me. I've tried multiple cables, different ports on my mac, and it always syncs the phone and shows up in the toolbar, but once I click it, it disappears, and crashes the dev tools.

It looks like this is linked to when the iPhone is fully charged. I am not sure why this is the case, but when it is fully charged, the computer must send some signal to the phone, because it no longer works. If I let my phone run low on battery, and try developer tools, 9 times out of 10 it works - until it recharges fully.

I have turned off all apps that I did not need and it started to work. It is also somehow related to the load of the Mac's CPU.
