Goby Mini LED Work Light

The compact professional work light: 2,300 lumens from 18 W, for smaller mounting positions on machines and vehicles.

The smallest of the line, 112 × 70 × 60 mm and 1.1 kg, but with the same build quality as its big brothers: cast aluminum, Deutsch connector in the housing, and the same four lens optics. For positions where a larger lamp does not fit or is not needed.

Decision Aid

When do you choose the Goby Mini

The compact entry-level model of the work lamp family: professional work light where space is limited, or where a larger lamp is simply not needed.

  • Need a compact work light for tighter assembly positions
  • The environment requires IP69K and IK10, even in the smallest size
  • The 12- or 24-volt on-board power system must be connected directly: Deutsch connector in the housing, no cable or junction box
  • Working light is required at service points, entry zones, or the immediate machine environment
  • Form factor and ease of integration weigh heavier than maximum light output
  • A step up from generic small work lights in terms of finish and durability is desired

When another luminaire fits better

The Goby Mini is not intended for every task. Being clear about the limits yields a better final result.

  • Need more output or range within the same family: then the Goby
  • Maximum mechanical robustness has priority: then the Piranha
  • A larger area calls for a floodlight: then the Marlin or the Snapper
  • Dazzling of the driver or environment must be actively limited: then the DarkLicht Mini of DarkLicht S
  • ATEX or Ex certification is required
  • A high-temperature version is required: then the Goby HT
Versions

One version, two big brothers

The Goby Mini is available in a single DC version, kept deliberately simple. Anyone looking for more output, AC, or maximum robustness can move up within the same family.

For the installer

Vehicle electrical system, connections, and safety

The Goby Mini does not have an external driver: the drivers are mounted on the circuit board, and the luminaire connects directly to the vehicle's electrical system via the Deutsch connector.

Voltage range
9–32 V

DC, direct on 12 and 24 V vehicle electrical systems

Current draw
0.8 A

at 24 V · 1.5 A at 12 V

Temperature
−45 °C

up to +50 °C ambient temperature

Connection
DTP04

German two-pole, in the housing

Why not use an external driver?

The DC drivers are mounted on the circuit board inside the molded luminaire itself. This means there is no driver enclosure, no additional wiring, and no second mounting point: connecting it requires just one click on the DTP04 connector.

The fuse rating and wire gauge are determined by the vehicle's electrical system and current draw; for verification, we provide a lighting advice and installation calculation.

Other electrical
  • Voltage range: 9 to 32 VDC, nominal 12 and 24 V
  • Current consumption approx. 0.8 A at 24 V, 1.5 A at 12 V
  • Customized dimming; switching by group via the vehicle electrical system
  • Deutsch DTP04, 2-pin, in the housing
  • Vibration class 6G (IEC 60068-2-6), shock IEC 60068-2-27
Optics

Optics and measured beam angles

The same four lens optics as the large Goby, on a compact scale. An optic name is not a measurement value: the 14° optic measures 13°. If you are in doubt between two angles, we will substantiate the choice with a free lighting calculation.

The beam angle is the full angle between the directions in which the intensity has decreased to 50 % of the peak; the field angle is 10 %. The upward light output is 0 % at 0° tilt. Combinations of optics within a single luminaire are possible.

Mounting

Video editing software

On machines and vehicles, the connection determines just as well as the bracket or a work light whether it will reach its lifespan. The Goby Mini is therefore designed around the Deutsch connector: no cable, no junction box, no cable gland.

Deutsch DTP04 in the housing

The two-pole connector sits directly in the casting: connection is one click on the on-board network, without a cable, junction box, or cable gland as a source of failure.

Dimensional drawing of the Goby 3 work light

Compact footprint

112 × 70 × 60 mm and 1.1 kg: fits entry areas, mirror frames, and service points where a larger lamp cannot.

A fall protection cable is optionally available and is often a strict requirement when installed above a work area. The DRB-1 driver box houses the remote driver and is mounted directly behind the luminaire using the rear mount bracket. The Crane Light Stabilizer has its own product page.

Applications

Applications

Where the Goby Mini is installed in practice, and why there.

DCbright lighting system in a green housing mounted on a truck

Vehicles and service points

On service vehicles, access areas, and workstations around the machine: reliable work lighting in positions where every centimeter counts.

Hoogwout tow truck at night with glare-free work lights

Machines and construction sites

As an additional working light on booms, frames, and cabs, alongside the larger work lights of the family.

Mining machine at night with DarkLicht work lights

Agricultural and off-road

On tractors and off-road vehicles, the 12-volt on-board network counts: the Goby Mini connects directly to it with 1.5 A.

Heavy equipment

As entry and ambient lighting on mining and earthmoving equipment, in the same corrosion class as the main lights.

Family DNA

Small format, same build quality

With the Goby Mini, “compact” is not synonymous with “lightweight”: it features the same cast aluminum with less than 0.08 % of copper, the same titanium e-coating, and the same IP69K and IK10 ratings as the rest of the family.

That sets it apart from generic small work lights: it offers the same service life of over 360,000 hours (L90B05), the same optics, and the same connector,all in the smallest size in the line.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is your question not listed, or would you like something calculated? An engineer will respond within 1 business day.

The same family DNA in a smaller casting: 112 × 70 × 60 mm and 1.1 kg versus 120 × 141 × 79 mm and 1.8 kg. The Mini delivers 2,300 lumens from 18 W; the Goby is available in four power ratings up to 8,200 lumens. The optics, connector, coating, and protection ratings are identical.

Yes. The voltage range is 9 to 32 VDC, so both 12- and 24-volt systems are supported: approximately 1.5 A at 12 V and 0.8 A at 24 V. The drivers are on the circuit board; there is no external driver.

The Deutsch DTP04 is the standard in vehicle and machine construction: waterproof, vibration-resistant, and can be mounted without a junction box or cable gland. Because the connector is integrated into the casting, there is no cable that can be damaged; connecting is just one click on the vehicle's electrical system.

The 38° is the standard choice for nearby work surfaces. The 14° spot (measured at 13°) bridges distance, the 69° provides wide illumination, and the 14° × 46° flare casts an asymmetrical beam. It uses the same family of optics as the large Goby; we recommend selecting based on the mounting position.

Dimming requires customization because the drivers on the circuit board supply a constant current. Switching by group can be done via the vehicle electrical system.

Yes. The luminaire has been tested to IP66, IP67, IP68, and IP69K. All of these classes are mentioned because they are different tests: IP69K is high-pressure and high-temperature steam jet, IP68 is immersion. One does not imply the other.

Yes. The vibration class is 6 G at resonance, tested in accordance with IEC 60068-2-6, with shock testing in accordance with IEC 60068-2-27. The housing is a single casting and the 316L bracket clamps infinitely within −60° to +30°.

Yes. The housing contains less than 0.08 % copper and has a 2-layer titanium-based e-coating; the bracket is 316L. This corresponds to corrosion class C5 Industrial and Maritime. If all-stainless-steel construction is a requirement, consider the Piranha 316L.

The 360,000 hours is a TM-21 L90B05 value: at that point, at least 95 % of the luminaires will still be delivering at least 90 % of their initial light output. This is more stringent than the standard L70 and L80 specifications.

No. The luminaire is not intended for hazardous areas. If ATEX is a requirement, please discuss this in advance, and we will determine a suitable solution together.

Yes. With the connector in the housing, the wide voltage range, and the compact casting, the Mini is built for integration into machine building. For series production, we tailor the optics, color temperature, and mounting to the machine architecture.
