Default LED Flood Light Failure

I'd expect failure modes of mains LED devices to be of the it works
or it doesn't variety rather than just dim. It takes a while to start
(there always was a very short delay) and slowly fades out when
switched off. High resistance between the PSU and LED module?

every chinky floodlight I have bought has failed went back to the
conventional 500w jobs
