I stand corrected. Just was at Nanotuners and looks that you can do a 70W HQI without heat issues. I bought the 4.36 kit from them and was very happy with it. They do provide everything for the task.

I have the BC29 (original) and wondered if there's a chance to increase the bubbles. Or maybe some sort of venturi on it. I saw somewhere someone...
