I know your attributes from the installation of solar panel mounts, I'm sure you;ll get a handle on securing those boxes. For all intents, two #10 screws into a stud will support a lot of weight.
:)... No kidding. I could hang myself from those solar panel mounts.
But two #10 screws in stud are supporting only the left side of 9 lbs controller, not the top side. The right side is resting on 2 well nuts with #10 screws in 1/4" ply.
For a 2 lbs breaker box in basement pass-through space, since nobody can see it, I will slap a 1/2" or 3/4" plywood backer on 1/4" wall, and make this backer so wide so that it will be resting on #10 screws in studs. The trailer is getting heavier and heavier.
