[oletrucks] fuse size

[mark <ccpanel@jps.net>]

i thought that fuse size was directly proportional to the size of wire since
that is what you are protecting. you want the fuse to blow before the wire
melts causing a fire. or the fuse to blow before the motor siezes(which is
caused by the wire in the motor melting) so in either case-you want to size
the fuse to protect the smallest wire in the circuit.
i dont know specs-heres my guess. 14gu good for 30A 16 good for 20A and 18
good for maybe 15A?
