Typically they have a 15A and sometimes a 20A fuse, however it's really
dependent upon how you wired it.  Assuming you used a sufficiently heavy
gauge of wire you should be fine at 15 or 20. I know there was a post a
long time ago talking about what gauge wire could accept what amount of
current, I'm sure an archive search or a google could find it.
