If you have multiple large wattage CFL's, or if they did a 1000w CFL, you'd still have to cool them similar to a HID setup. I had a 200w CFL in a tent before and if you didnt exhaust it it jumped up from 18C (64.4F) to 32C (89.6F) in quite a short period of time. The ballasts on the bulbs produce a LOAD of heat, and the actual bulb heats up quite alot too, you can touch it but not for too long.

Just incase you thought it'd run cold.

I am currently using the bad boy 8 lamp light and so far it's been fantastic. Great growth in veg and says somewhat cool. Very bright and widespread light as well.
