You fellows using the tie down straps instead of inserts… Link me a strap you like!
I’m guesstimating 26" is about what I’m after. Ratchet or velcro? Planning on using a non skid sheet under it.
These are pretty burly and useful. I’ve got one of the Onetigris straps holding up a 10s3p battery/enclosure under a board, along with the TFY elastic strap to provide some tension, so should also work well for a top mount.

Ooh that looks interesting but I’ve got a bigger top mount box so it would need to be a good bit longer.

Just link two or three straps together. I think with those straps I linked, you would have enough length to work with.

Here’s how far one of the Onetigris straps will get you, so two should fit just about any size box. This Apache box is a little over 4" tall, for reference.

Nice list! Thanks for doing all the hard work. 
Bookmarked. And in the price wars, it looks like Apache/Harbor Freight comes out on top. I’ve got like 5 of the Apache 1800 boxes for various things, and they seem plenty durable and capable for our uses. Plus, there’s a lot less anxiety when it comes to drilling and cutting out holes, cause if you mess up, you’re only out $13 instead of $40-50+.
