For anyone that uses dimmer packs (I have elation dp's), how do you guys mount them to the truss? What is the best practice of mounting them?

Which model dimmer do you have? DMX-20 ? Cyberpak? What model or type of trussing? I-beam, triangle, square ?

Ok I Use the Dura-truss so the mounting points would be different, but hopefully now with that info somebody else will be able to chime in :)

Looking at the truss system you have and the model dimmer pack you are using my first question is would you be averse to permanently affixing them the the truss? The way you store and transport them would the extra space be a problem?
The seemingly obvious way to mount them to me would be to rest the flange on the top of the Upper bar and use small diameter, large head self-tapping metal screw to screw directly into the bar using the keyhole mounting points built into the LC-4SP
Depending on how tight you run the screws they could be removable too, as long as the screw heads are smaller than the keyholes
