Track width requirement doesn't come from power, it comes from current.

It seems most tables on the net show the temperature rise as a function of
current and width, but not the resistance or voltage drop or some other way
to compute the same thing.  Advanced Circuits has (did about a year ago at
least) a calculator that does give you all these things.  If I remember
right, their web site is www.4pcb.com.
