the Vf thing on a led changes over time and temp, which would cause it to draw more energy. kinda its own little nucelar meltdown :)
so depending on the curcuit stuff, it could be getting brighter, just before it goes Dim permanentally :)

Was it getting darker when your light seemed to slowly get brighter?
