Some ATC fuses with increasing amp rating (digikey P/N) for reference. Do not take this as a suggestion to push this much current through this PCB!

PN	Amperage	notes
F4191-ND	1 amp
F4192-ND	2 amp
F4193-ND	3 amp
F4194-ND	4 amp	I would not exceed this unless you monitor temp and duration.
F4197-ND	5 amp	risky
F4198-ND	7.5 amp	uh, not confident on this
F4199-ND	10 amp	haha I do not think 1oz copper will survive
