Hmmm, sounds like a very good idea, in theory (and short term practice). I wonder if one could do the same thing to a PC bulb. I have a dual 28w PC ballast, I wonder if I could overdrive that to 2x. That would be a very good thing for smaller tanks.

What about blowouts? The glass and pins on a bulb aren't meant to get that hot for periods of time, this may have a scary side effect,not to mention possibly blowing up the ballast.
