I'm not quite sure if it's a new bulb, or an entire new assembly. I'm waiting
for the yard to call me back with the model.

From the description in the original post, it sounds as if this is a
complete new LED assembly, and not just an LED substituted for an
incandescent lamp in an old fixture. In these assemblies, there is no
"socket" the LED's are soldered directly into the circuit board, and the
assembly is perma
In all likelihood, it is the socket that the LED bulb is mounted on. Those
cheap sockets are notorious for corrosion and no amount of regulation is going
to prevent the LED from flickering. Go up the mast with a bit of sandpaper and
some contact cleaner and I am willing to bet you will find you
Thanks Bill...good advice.

Probably wouldn't hurt to call tech support at the manufacture before
you go up the mast. They may have some tips for how to do a
comprehensive evaluation. They might even offer to send you a new unit
in advance before you go up, with the agreement to send back the

I just reread your post and saw that it's 'built in'. Looks like a trip up the
mast. Thanks.

Thanks Bill. I'm guessing that the regulator is up at top of the mast with
light? Do I need to replace the whole assembly?
Thanks,

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) t
Mark,
Check the connection from the mast to the boat for tightness and corrosion.
The bulb could also be loose in the fixture at the top of the mast.

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 shut
