CLEANEST looking ATI SUNPOWER fixture?

I can't have wire everywhere, and my ceiling is way too tall for a pendant hanging set up. Has anybody come up w/ a creative and clean/integrated look for the ATI?

Thanks a lot... if I can find something that would work I can avoid spending twice as much on a Maxspect Mazarra

EDITED : POWER MODULE actually is what I'm looking at

You can bend conduit and mount it to the stand or wall. I use fancy 9" shelf bracket to hang my lighting. I extended it by mounting a piece of C-channel aluminum to it and mounting the hardware to that.

If you want to save money, look at the ATI Sunpower. Same performance as a Powermodule and less money.

+1 to James. I bent conduit piping and then ziptied the power cord to the piping. I really like the look.

Nice I wonder if you could run the wires inside the conduit... For an extra cleaner kook but if could involve cutting the wires then rewiring it right?

Yes and you can kiss goodbye your warranty at that point.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys

Kellerexpress your setup looks bomb. I cracked down and went w/ the maxspect mazarria... I just want a more manufactured vs. a DIY look.
