my cfls hang and rotate and sometimes they hit eachother with gusts of wind blown with the fan... they barely bump and im trying to keep them extremely tight packed. my lights are in a y splitter two to a reflector can. the bumping occurs were the lights stick out. what would you recomend?

Hey man, i'd use either string, or tape to hold them into position.. because if they bump too hard.. well you know.

i saw a bit on cfl's the other day on 20/20 or dateline... If one is to break mercury is let out into your home/ grow area. This one woman that broke one paid 2000 to have it cleaned up by professionals. I've broke my share over time and after seeing that video I would try my hardest to prevent one from breaking again.

I don't think breaking one CFL will let enough mercury vapor to escape to be harmful. I have broke several in my room with no ill effects.
