I am trying to mount the base of W78H to the wall. The base is currently mounted, but it is hanging at an angle. I am using two drywall flat countersunk screws inside drywall anchors. The head is flat on top and is tapered with a curve on the bottom (the side that connects to the shaft). I think this is the wrong kind of screw.

For mounting into drywall, what exact screw head is recommended and what exact size of head to work with the W78H? For example, would a truss head screw be a better match to ensure that W78H hangs at a 90 degree angle from the wall? Please provide the best screw/screw head information. Thank you.

Screw head should not matter (the space in the W78H charging cradle – BTW it's called charging cradle not base – is good enough for basically any head.)

But the curve on the bottom can definitely make it have a less-optimal grip on the charging cradle. So take one with a flat bottom and make sure the screw is in to the wall enough.
