As for the system as a whole, I think that it's a bit over-bright and

My usual kneejerk reaction to 'overbright/tiring' claims is to suggest
trying valve amplification (DHTs preferably), but that's not always easy
to do.

Your requirements for white plastic conduit with a snap on cover appear
to be ridiculously small, given the amount of 'airtime ' they have
received but are probably well within the few spare/unwanted bits I have
up in the rafters of my garage and which will be going in the skip I
will be ordering soon, when the weather improves - you can have them for
nowt if you are able to collect from St Neots, Cambs??
