TCC lockup

Hi Guys,
Playing with the TCC lockup ATM (VX L67 with The1 enhanced code), been getting the converter to lock up a little earlier in 3rd, it's locking up when accelerating moderately coming onto the motorway, it's like having another gear which is great and when it locks it feels like the acceleration actually improves which is even better.
What I'm worried about is damaging the lockup clutch in the converter when applying it while there is a fair bit of load going through the converter. I believe Holden added the 2nd solenoid for the lock up function to smooth the application by controlling the pressure going to the clutch during the VR model however I wonder if changing the settings so the apply happens a lot faster it will prevent wear in the lock up clutch?
If I'm not mistaken I need to increase the DC%'s in this table TCC - Normal Mode - 3 & 4 Apply Rate Duty Cycle % / Sec Vs TPS ?
