Haidut posted some studies where they were using up to 300mg, I believe. I think it was generally well tolerated. Weight loss was one of the things noticed at those higher doses.

Here was the quote, from "Biotin Promotes Glycogen Synthesis" thread, in response to a question about using biotin for weight loss- "Some of the studies with high doses of biotin (i.e. human equivalent of about 100mg) found exactly that - loss of body fat. If biotin lowers triglycerides, FFA and cholesterol then it is a sign of increased fat disposal. Those trigs, FFA and cholesterol were not shuttled back to the liver so they mush have been oxidized or glucuronidated and excreted. I think biotin can work even without niacinamide but combining them prevents the wasteful conversion of carbs into fat due to the effects of niacinamide."

I have used this:
Pure Biotin Pure (Vitamin B7) Powder in Bulk | BulkSupplements.com

it is powder, very easy to work with and cheaper than anything I've seen.

Did you ever do a dose in the 100-300mg range? I brought a 10g bag, and then forgot to experiment with it.

this is 1% biotin powder. I bought a bag. to take 100 mg of this you'd have to take a lot (~10g) of the powder.

No that's a separate product. Biotin pure is what he's referring to.

thanks for the correction. I see they have 1% and "Pure" biotin. It will be a while until I finish my bag of 1%. :-(
