William,
I actually prefer to use Unirac L-brackets for mounting J-boxes. Sometimes I'll
use the Enphase one because it comes with the Enphase whip (and therefore I
save paying $2.75 on an extra L-bracket). However, I find the L-brackets to be
sturdier and less visible.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Enphase J-box brackets
Friends:
Enphase has changed the design of the brackets they provide to support a
j-box. This is a problem because the new ones are inferior for these reasons:
1. They do not have a hole adjacent to the back of a mounted box (to the best
of our knowledge). This hole allows for the use of the back hub in a standard
"bell" box.
2. They can not be mounted offset (to see the benefits and application browse

3. They do not accommodate one and two gang bell boxes.
I'd like to buy a quantity of these brackets. A jpg depiction is attached.
Does anyone have surplus?
Does anyone else miss these enough to write Enphase and ask that they be
reinstated into the catalog?
Thanks in advance.
