Interior LED Fixture has Dimmed
Without any preceding symptoms, the under cabinet LED fixture in our galley has suddenly dimmed. Seems to be maybe 2/3 of its original full intensity. I dropped the fixture down from under the cabinet...

.21 V in general would not make that big a difference in the brightness of the LED fixture. If it's a fixture with an active regulator, it should make no difference at all; but even with a cheaper design using e.g. a dropping resistor it should be at most barely noticeable.
You'll have a much larger voltage difference when using battery power alone, at least once the surface charge has dissipated.
It sounds to me more like a fault in the lamp itself.
I'm coming to the same conclusion . . . the product was supplied by a firm in Elkhart called "Perfit RV, Inc.." It's an unsophisticated fixture manufactured in Guangdong, China. This particular model is no longer offered and has even been supplanted by a different one; thankfully the form factor is identical to the older one. So if we order a replacement at least the exterior will look the same.
