Osram 65 Watt H7 Bulbs

Has anyone used these? Osram Rallye 65w Ultra High Output H7 Special-Service Bulb My understanding is that the standard H7 bulb is 55 Watts and that these are 65W. Is the higher current draw going to create electrical problems or heat issues with the housing? Thanks

Going HID is a consideration but ultimately I would like to do projectors. The 65W Osram bulbs appear to be an inexpensive and easy intermediate until I have the time/money for the projectors.
