LEDs are operated with current, not voltage.
Each LED has a different forward voltage drop as it operates, it is not a voltage that is supplied to it, it just has that voltage when it has the proper amount of current given to it. The manufacturer's voltage spec for an LED is a range of voltages.
An LED that operates at or less than its max allowed current and temperature will slowly get dimmer. The dimming is less at lower current.
An LED sets its own voltage. It is driven by current, not voltage.
Look at the graph of voltage vs current on the datasheet for an LED. If it is 3.0V at 20mA then its voltage will be about 3.1V at 25mA and 3.2V at 30mA.
Its max allowed is probably 30mA and it will burn out if you apply more than that.
omgwtfbyobbq: LED's current driven devices, if you're increasing the voltage but the current is going down then there's only two possible ways that can occur, something else (like an external resistor) is dropping the rest of the voltage in which case you're not actually increasing the voltage to the LED, or a tunneling effect is occuring, but this doesn't happen the way LED's are doped
