I have a weird question. About a month ago I noticed a strange smell in one of my rooms. I finally narrowed it down to the fluorescent light on a ceiling fan. It smells like tempera paint (the kind used in elementary). I replaced the circline bulb and the smell came back. Could the smell be coming from the ballast? If the light is off and the fan is on there is no smell; so I know it's coming from the light. Also, if it is the ballast are there any health hazards from exposure to the smell? My son's desk is right under the fan.
Thanks for any insight!
