Title: Kappa ks310 lights - bulbs?
Post by: ScaredyCat on March 10, 2025, 11:15:20
Hi,

anyone know what bulbs are needed for the Kappa KS310 lights?

I think they're the same lights sold as the Givi KS310 - at least they look the same.

Given that Givi and Kappa are the same company then they are almost certainly the same. The only difference normally between their stuff is that Kappa stuff may be a bit more "rough and ready" than the Givi... at least in my experience!

If they are H3 then they should be available just about anywhere.
Take em out, check the ratings and voila.

Ouch indeed. Which, along with lower current draw, os why many use led spot / fog / auxiliary lamps.

I searched for & tried 3 different LED options for mine but never found any that would fit well & put out the 'brighter' light through the centre of the glass/lens.

Just had a look in the garage & found some. There's 4, the boxes are a bit battered but the bulbs are OK. The one on the right isn't the Xenon Effect type, the other 3 are.
If you want them, no charge, PM your address & I'll get them in the post to you.

Many thanks for your generosity, but I've ordered a couple online - it'd be wrong to take yours now.

Much appreciated though.
