That LED, regardless of brand, has a built in regulator circuit. That is
true even of LED replacement lamps put in the original incandescent
fixture. It sounds as if your regulator is defective. That the light is
sometimes dim is the giveaway. The regulator is designed (when working
properly) to make up for incoming voltage that is either lower or higher
than required.

Hello Everyone,
I'm having a problem with my anchor light and would appreciate some advice.
Three months ago I had an LED anchor light installed and my mast rewired.
Things have been working perfectly but now my anchor light is working
intermittently. At times it is dim, or flickers, or shuts off. I climbed down
into the locker and worked all the wires and connections to see if I had a bad
connection and replaced the fuse as well. It has the original electrical panel
with the fuses. As all the wiring from the switch to the top of the mast is
new, I was thinking the problem is at the panel. Before I tore it apart I
thought I'd ask for and thoughts or opinions.
Thanks a lot.
