A self-monitoring LED marine navigation light that monitors LED intensity and if the intensity is not COLREG compliant, a microprocessor in the light simulates an open filament just as would an incandescent light, thus allowing the analog ships alarm panel circuit to trigger an alarm. The device generally comprises a base, a lens mounted to the base, and an LED module seated in the base and enclosed by the lens. The LED module includes primary and optional secondary LED lights plus one or more photodiode(s) exposed to the LED light(s). The LED also includes a processor and software for measuring light intensity input to the photodiode(s), comparing measured intensity to a minimum COLREG threshold, and signaling failure when measured intensity falls below said minimum threshold.
