ya u can just keep using the 15A.

the reason why it was blown was because the battery kept pushing current into the motor because it was struggling to fire the gun(since the piston was stuck). So eventually there were too much current in the wiring so the fuse blew up.

The fuse is there only to protect the wiring from blowing up, if something was to blow up, fuse will first, so that the wiring is fine.

after all, replacing the fuse is much easier than replacing the wiring lol

dont up the amps, if you up the amps for the fuse, 20A is as far as I reccomend. If you up the amps, it just means that you will be putting more current in your wiring before the fuse blows up, and thats a bad thing to do.
