Square Perfect 65 watt bulb http://www.squareperfect.com/p-20-square-perfect-65-watt-compact-fluorescent-full-spectrum-photo-bulb-photography.aspx

The Lime Studios lights are at least not labelled as Square Perfect, and are listed as 6500K instead of 5500K. But I to think that any product that looks the same except for labeling come from the same manufacturer, but marketed through different outlets with customized labeling.

Probably still the same lamps. Maybe Square Perfect got a bad match. Maybe you just got a bad bulb. Or maybe it's a design flaw. The fact that they're cheaper than others gives me some pause that they have a problem. I was hoping the relative inexpense was an economy of scale issue with the most popular size.

But when they come in, I'll report back on whether they smell.

No smell issues for me.
