Yes!
I'll second that. I have looked but so far I haven't found one.
314.16 only requires that the volume be "durably and legibly marked by the manufacturer" for boxes that don't appear 314.16(A). So for a canopy, just do your own volume calculation and throw a label in there with the results. : - )
May even be higher here.
Is it possible to coordinate with the General Contractor that provisions be made in the way of mounting to always allow for a 1 1/2” deep octagon box for instance?
I guess even the 1/4" allowed per 314.20 when the surface is non-combustible would be a 50% volume increase for a pancake box.
Yes that very common
I wish they would make something like a 1" deep fixture box. Sometimes there is not enough real estate for a 1.5" octagon, but you've got more than .5" and dont want to deal with the potential hassles of a pancake box. For example 5/4 fixture blocks on the sheathing. Many times in those situations you just end up using a pancake but it sits back .5" and all the kittens and nuns die, oh well.
They make a 1/2 in 3o pancake extension to build your own.I wish they would make something like a 1" deep fixture box.

I was going to type 65% but worried that I might just been having bad luck
Probably here too, was trying to be conservative
