Default Honey Instead of Sugar

This year I am thinking of experimenting on a small batch of Chambourcin and using honey instead of sugar to chaptalize. I know that all honey is a little different but does anyone know the approximate ratio of honey to sugar conversion? For example, if it took two pounds of sugar, how much honey would this be?

Has anyone chaptalized with honey before and if so what were the results. I guess this would properly be called a Pyment.
