3D printed ice handle question

We’ve just begun to experiment with several designs of handles for our ice rods and I have a question to throw out for you experts. When you design these, what percentage of infill are most of you using for strength? We put a few together as prototypes with 15% but I feel that the final product should be a bit higher. If you could give us some input that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Try 25% if 15% feels like not enough.
