As far as the thermaling; it may or may not do that, there really isn't a way to tell without trying it. I still wouldn't do it though. The switching circuits are quite complex and who knows what kind of nastiness that could happen. It could work fine, it could overheat, or it could do "bad" things - who knows?

Like I said, I'm sure I can get it to be more stable, but no guarantees if I can do much else without really digging into the circuit. The output is limited by the choice of coils, transistors, and general design.
