February in Phuket

I've been to Paradise (aka Phuket) twice, but both times during the low season--and loved it! I'd very much recommend going in the low season, for many reasons. My next trip, however, probably will have to come in February, but not by choice. So I've a few q's for the old hands and would love your input, even if it's only a matter of opinion:

How "high" of the high season is February? For example, I've heard that August is the "high" point of the low season. Is Feb more or less popular than other high season months?

What can I expect to pay for a guest-friendly hotel in Feb.? I usually pay about 500 baht per night low season, so long as I agree to see at one hotel 2 weeks or longer.

Do TGs expect more than the "going rate" bc it's high season (1,000 lt; 500 st)?

Generally, is all of Patong just packed, or is only a bit more crowded than during the low season?

Is the ratio of girls to guys similiar to low season? I know the total numbers of both are supposedly much higher...

Any other high season comments appreciated. What's it like? Pros, cons, etc. Again, I'm a low season guy so I'm a bit curious as to what high season entails.

Cheers

Note: I've already used the search function, but to no use I'm afraid on this specific topic.
