I want to attach a 17" LCD TV to my bedroom wall which is straw filled plasterboard about 2 1/2" thick (built in 1992) The TV and bracket have a combined weight of 6.44KG (14.2 lbs) the bracket has a backplate measuring
45mm x 150mm, there are three fixing holes, two at the top with 25mm centres and one at the bottom which is 130mm lower and central. There are no studs near where the TV HAS to go. Will this end in disaster with the TV going South? I could spread the load by mounting a piece of sheet wood on the wall and screwing the bracket to that but I am trying to avoid that if possible. Will the PB take it or any other ideas anybody. Because of the straw inside I don't think butterfly toggles are an option.TIA
