I have several battery-powered projects in the works where I can potentially draw more current than I would be comfortable running directly through a switch. I found the following boards on Pololu that seem to accomplish this, as well as adding reverse voltage protection:

I looked over the schematic and removed some of the options that I don't want, such as multiple options for switches. I quickly redrew the schematic and I think it makes sense (without getting to deeply into the weeds with exact part values). The load would be LEDs, servos, microcontrollers, etc.
It's been a while since I've tried to use MOSFETs, so I'd appreciate any constructive criticism, including where it would be prudent to have decoupling caps. I'm also not sure if that's a good spot for a fuse (S2) or not.
