shrink-wrap the fiberglass to the main conductor, which hopefully keeps it from

Have you tried testing your homemade fuse to be sure it actually works?
Make one, and short it across the pack to be sure it blows (and so you
can see what happens when it does).
Most of the cost of fuses is not for the materials, but for the testing!
