LUX H8 - Heat issue? Bulb Warning message...

I have the first batch of the LUX H8 on my 2009 E90 and the have been 99% trouble free since i installed them last October. No flickering at all that i've noticed. Occasionally i get the left bulb out warning but it usually goes away after a few seconds. Rarely ever happens though.

This past weekend was a different story. With NYC temps in the 95+ range my LUX kit was causing the bulb out warning almost non stop. Left, right both non stop during my entire trip. From what i could notice while driving the bulbs were still on the entire time...just annoying that the car keeps on giving me that warning chime every couple of minutes.

Has anyone else experienced this? Should i be concerned with this being a hazard on my car during summer temps? I know there was a recall on these but since i got the earlier batch I wasn't affected.
