Anybody know of a good brand of exterior wall light that looks similar to the light below, needs to be able to accept conduit from both sides.

Use a conduit through box
 
Would prefer not too as not a fan of the look personally, I would like the fittings flush on the wall then conduit coming out either side as there are four of them in a row.

Not an Electrician then?
 
Only problem with conduit at either side, it's a bother to replace the light in the future, use a T box and enter the light from the top.
Design Plan are a pretty good manufacturer.

The OP wants them flush with the wall Kev
 
I was thinking the T box would be at the top of the fitting, however I suppose the boxes would look a bit unsightly. Well if the conduit must go at both sides, then don't scrimp on the fittings, as you don't want to have to replace them if you fit cheap nasty ones.
 
The wall has a top ledge which sticks out further than the wall so I think it will look a lot smarter with the top of the light sitting against the ledge and sitting flat on the wall and conduit in between the fittings.

Just the sort of install where customers don't realise the methods that need to be employed ti suite their unreasonable needs.
 
I'd sooner enter only from below, but that's me being lazy and not wanting to empty water out and replace the gear every few years.

What about run the conduit right up under the ledge with Tangent tee boxes?
