    hi I’m new on here but have a problem with a kino and would appreciate any help. My diva light is a 4 bank 230v. I cannot get it to light all 4 daylight bulbs. It will light all 4 tungsten or 2 tungsten and 2 daylight but once I connect 3 or more daylight bulbs it only lights 2.

    anyone know whats going on?

    thanks

    Hi:

    I would contact Kino Flo directly. Are you under warranty? Somethings not right. I would also try two different daylight bulbs in place of the ones that won’t light up.

    Best,

    Yes…that was going to be my question as well…have you tried other daylight bulbs? …or have you tried to change the sockets around?

    If you trade the daylight and tunsten bulbs into the other’s sockets when you see the problem, does the problem stay with the bulbs or the socket?

    The Kino operates in pairs of bulbs. If there is a problem with one bulb (or its seating) then its pair won’t light either.

    Switch around as Tim suggested to isolate the problem to your one bulb, or to its seating.

    I should have added…make sure that the connections are correct. We frequently have issues after re-lamping where the grip may inadvertently connect the ends improperly.
