No, that's a misconception. Since HPS lights are more efficient, they put out more light and less heat than the equivalent wattage of CFL. The only difference is the type of heat they put out. CFLs are mainly convected heat, whereas HPS puts out radiant heat.

This simply means that HPS have a "hot spot" immediately around the bulb, so you can't place plants too close to them. This is not that big of a deal, I can get plants within 6 inches of my 250 with no problems.

Overall, 250 watts of HPS will put out less heat than 250 watts of CFL.
