Hi All,
Has anyone every seen a deep round weatherproof box? I did a search but came up empty. All I found was your standard round bell type box. Thanks.

I have a light on a block wall that’s needs a weather box so I can run conduit up to the ceiling to feed another light. The problem is the light wraps around the weatherproof box slightly covering the 1/2 inch hole. The conduit will not fit. I was trying to find a deep box with the hopes it would work. Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like you have a light intended to mount over a flush box and it won't be very weathertight if mounted over a surface box.

A cheat (that may be rejected by code officials) make a flat oversized plate to fit the box with wiring access hole in center, then attach luminaire to the plate.
