I did this for a year in high school (bi-phasic, 1.5h + 4.5h). Had to stop because I was disrupting my parents at night, but I had very good results overall. Felt like I had more energy during the day and enjoyed surreal relaxing times awake at night.

One thing though: I had a really hard time waking up from the short nap and had to have my girlfriend call me to wake me up every day. If you don't have a (girl/boy)friend to help you with this, or a very aggressive alarm clock, YMMV.

Another friend is doing a similar cycle right now and it's the same for him ... he has some friends ("accountability partners") who will call him to wake him up daily from his shorter nap and I think they talk about how their day went and then hang up.
