Hi all,

I'm in a process of setting up UNS R150 and enjoying it, so everything goes really slowly, one part I wanted is to mount all those power bricks to the back wall (this way cable management is neat), so I bought a large marine plywood sheet of 18mm thickness and placed it against the wall and the next thing come up - how to mount those units?
I wanted it to be easy removable and replaced if needed.

I have not found a solution as of now, so instead had to use 20mm Velcro kit from Amazon (they included also loops) and some custom 3D printed brackets I created myself! It worked out really really well!

I'm attaching some photos of printed brackets for GHL Doser 3 power bricks (they are tiny) and huge GHL Lightbar 3 320W monster so it's easier to understand my solution.

I hope maybe someone will find it useful.

PS: If anyone interested, here is a link to the 3D model (all free): https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7315211
PPS: Found another forum here for 3D printing, my bad, will post there next time
