The label on the bottom, when I bump them, I write the new fw in with a sharpie.

How does one bolt down a gang charger?

Bolts? Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I thought that too, but over the years in working in the gov't sector, I have seen some pretty inventive things.

Plug in a display module and power it up. It's the only way to know for sure.

(PS: You have to check every pocket).

Yeah I was referring to the lack of thru-holes to do such a thing without constructing some kind of cage or bracket. We've created a "trough" out of L-channel and used velcro to keep it from bouncing out on speed bumps. Not ideal.

I've seen quite a few installs with L brackets bolted to the side of the rack charger an then bolted down.
