i just installed 2 105w (500 w equivalent) CFLs and now my closet smells like a hospital, cant really smell the plants anymore. its not necessarily a bad thing but im worried about them emitting ozone and hurting my plants. does anyone know if they do? the manufact. website doesnt say anything about ozone and they arent odor eating lights

Had the same thing happen with some bulbs I got from Walmart. These were the 150W Equiv though. I googled at the time and from what I can remember, it was caused by the coating on some brands of bulbs getting hot, and that it's not dangerous.
