I'm with you on that! Any rooms or Foyers that may get a heavy fixture would get a metal box or a Fan-type box/support.

Sparky,

I too like the pancakes as they can be cut into the siding afterwards when fixtures are available and final positioning can be determined.

Question:
are you technically allowed to hang a fixture off of a 3 x 2 Device Box?
I know that you'd be relying on#6 screws, instead of #8s. I wouldn't do it on a ceiling, but as I said above, I had to do it to bail me out of a wall sconce problem once.
