I've gotten about 10 watts thru one. But that's likely about as much as I could expect. These twinlead Jpoles are usually used with handhelds in hotel rooms when traveling.
For more power, you could get a bigger ferrite toroid (one good for VHF work), some ethernet cat5 twisted pair (balanced 100 ohm), and make your own 4:1 balun.
