CFLs can burn!

So, we bought 2 150 watt equivalent cfls and switched them with the 100s and they fell on the plants. Only one surviver. I think they were indica dominate bagseeds too.
Anyway, we did get two 24" T12s for the flowering side. Are they going to give enough warm light? They give off 1275 lumens and 3000 color temp. And they will be supported with cfls.
Also, I thought I had seen a write up on how to make cfls remote ballast, but can't find it anywhere. If anyone has seen it please point me in the right direction.
Our temps are pretty good but we have our box right in front of a window unit in our house and only two 150 watt (or 42w actual.) I think a remote ballast for our cfls would allow for more room and a lot more lights with a fraction of the heat. We will need to add more lights as we plan to have more plants in the box. (germinating more sticky icky bagseed at the moment.)
