6 Inch 48W Reversing LED Work Light E-Mark R10 Version 2
The SLL-6481-48 is a 6 inch reversing LED work light designed for vehicles and machinery that operate in low visibility conditions during reversing, rain, dust, and extreme temperatures. It uses 48W CREE LEDs to deliver 3,840 effective lumens in a flood beam pattern, ensuring the area directly behind the machine is fully illuminated without glare. The die-cast aluminium housing with UV polyester powder coating resists corrosion, and the IP68 sealing prevents water and dust ingress during pressure washing. The light is ECE R10 approved, which allows it to be used on machines that must pass road inspection in Europe.
- 48W CREE LEDs produce 3,840 effective lumens in a flood beam, covering the full reversing area instead of a narrow spot
- IP68 sealing and a robust cable gland keep water out during high-pressure washing and prolonged exposure to rain
- ECE R10 approval ensures electromagnetic compatibility, avoiding rejection during road inspection for public road use
- 9 to 32V operating range supports both 12V and 24V systems, reducing the number of SKUs needed for fleet-wide deployment
- Overvoltage and overheat protection prevent damage from electrical surges and prolonged high-temperature operation
Where This Lamp Is Used
- Reversing lighting on trucks, trailers, and dump bodies where visibility behind the machine is critical
- Cab rear lighting on excavators and cranes during night shift operations
- Auxiliary lighting on forklifts and industrial vehicles operating in dimly lit warehouses
- Side and rear lighting on utility and service vehicles used in construction and municipal work
- Fleet vehicles that must pass road inspection in Europe and require ECE R10 certified lighting
Who It Is For
- Distributors of vehicle lighting needing one reversing lamp for both 12V and 24V fleets
- Machinery OEMs integrating reversing lights into production line builds with consistent mounting patterns
- Fleet operators replacing halogen reversing lights that fail under vibration and high current draw
- 4x4 and industrial accessory brands developing a private label reversing light range
- Equipment dealers fitting lights on machines used in public road transport requiring ECE R10 approval
Problems It Solves
- Halogen reversing lights burn out quickly under vibration and draw excessive current from the vehicle’s electrical system
- Cheap sealed lights fail after a few wash cycles due to poor cable gland sealing and water ingress
- Uncertified auxiliary lights can be rejected during road inspection in Europe due to electromagnetic interference
- Narrow beam reversing lights illuminate only a small patch behind the machine, leaving the edges and ground dark
- Painted mild steel brackets corrode quickly on machines washed daily with water or cleaning agents
Technical Features
- 48W CREE LEDs with a real output of 3,840 effective lumens in a flood beam pattern
- Flood beam coverage with no hot spots, ideal for illuminating the full reversing zone
- Die-cast aluminium housing with durable UV polyester powder coating for long-term outdoor use
- Anti-UV, impact-resistant polycarbonate lens with scratch-resistant surface
- Overvoltage protection and overheat protection built into the driver circuit
- Cable entry gland with sealed gasket to maintain IP68 rating under vibration and pressure
- Operating voltage range of 9 to 32V DC, compatible with 12V and 24V systems
- Rated for -40 to +60 degrees Celsius, suitable for extreme cold and hot environments
- Bare wire lead of 40cm standard, with Deutsch connector available on request

- Private label logo on the housing and printed carton
- Mixed cartons combining this lamp with other SUNLITEC models for trial orders
- Flood beam pattern only (no spot option available)
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| Halogen reversing light of similar output | Draws 4A at 12V against roughly triple that for halogen and survives vibration that destroys a filament |
|---|---|
| Round 6 inch work lamp | The square body fits standard mounting brackets on reversing lights and provides more LED area within the same footprint |
| Spot beam version of the same lamp | Flood beam covers the full area behind the machine while spot reaches further ahead but leaves the edges dark |
| Smaller 4 inch reversing light | Higher output and better visibility in reverse, but requires more space on the machine body |
How to Fit and Use It
- Wire through a fused feed sized for 4A at 12V or 2A at 24V and route the cable with the entry point facing downward
- Leave a drip loop in the 40cm lead to prevent water from running into the cable gland
- Aim the flood beam at the area directly behind the machine and use a spot lamp separately if long-distance visibility is needed
- Clean the polycarbonate lens with water and a soft cloth only—avoid solvents that may damage the scratch-resistant coating
Questions About This Model
Can I order a sample before placing a bulk order
Yes. Sample orders are welcome and mixed samples of different models in one shipment are accepted.
What is the lead time
Sample orders normally take around 3 to 7 working days. Bulk lead time depends on the model and the quantity ordered.
Do you have a minimum order quantity
There is an MOQ for standard orders, but smaller orders are also accepted, which suits distributors testing a new model.
How is the lamp shipped
Samples usually go by DHL, UPS, FedEx or TNT in around 4 to 7 days. Bulk orders ship by air in about 7 to 15 days or by sea in about 15 to 30 days.
Will this lamp work on both 12V and 24V machines
Yes. The operating range is 9 to 32V DC, so the same part number can be fitted to 12V and 24V vehicles.
Can you supply the lamp with our own brand
Yes. OEM and ODM service is available, including a private label logo on the housing and printed cartons.
