Default @@@ Power Limit on J-Poles??????

Hello,

What's the upper power limit for your typical homemade VHF
J-Pole??

I made a super J-pole with 3/4" copper tubing, and it seems to
handle 350 watts very well. But i need to make something smaller, but
without giving up the power handling ability.

It might depend some on the diameter of the tubing (1/2" versus
3/4").

Any knowledgable advice greatly appreciated.
