This has me a lil stumped, I have a clear/white whelen vertex that seems to have gone into low power, all the LEDs light up, I thought I lost a few but no such animal. This is one of the older versions with screws and a seperateable driver section. I'm thinking this is a Mr Wilson question cause I've never seen these things drop into a low power/brightness mode.

Thoughts??15946149471081504225879739179267.jpg

depending on the version of led, some of the die packages become dislodged limiting the current to the rest of the leds. its also possible that the driver had some water intrusion.

side note im still here, just dont have time to reply on the forums as much, but i try to get to PM's within 48hrs
