Hi friends, I have a Coralife compact fluorescent light that hold a single 65w bulb. Last week, I was in the room and it started to sizzle and smoked just a touch at the end where the bulb plugs in. I unplugged it. Now, I have written off the bulb but now don't know what to do with it. How do I know the base is toasted? Could it have just been the bulb dying? Did some water splash at just the wrong place? Those bulbs at $30 so I hesitate to buy one just to try it out. How likely is it that if I buy another bulb it will work? Any suggestions on how to weigh this out would be helpful. I'd love to just go buy another bulb and have everything be OK.
