Well get you some no heat Lite Bulbs by G/E that look like a coil neon lite
which burn 1/2 the electricity and give off very little heat at all. You
can get them at Sam's Wholesale place and come 5 in a pack. This way you
find out if heat is doing it.

Compact fluorescents actually make a majority as much convected heat as
incandescents of the same light output do. What compact fluorescents
produce much less of is infrared. You get a lot less heat in the room,
although the air above the bulb will be only a little cooler.
