Power Poles Extended

Is it possible to make a settings menu where we can adjust how much power the lights take? 100 Watts is just insane! All of my other lights take only 30. I have 5 geothermal generators pumping out 18,000 Watts, but my grid still keeps dying because of all of my power poles that I use to both light up my streets and connect all of my buildings to the power grid. Only the Floodlight takes this kind of power, and it lights up an area something like 6 times the size of the modern light.

Speaking of size, the wooden power poles use the same energy, but light up barely a quarter of the space. I wish the wooden ones lit up the same amount of space. I like how they look more, but they don't do anything to actually provide light on the paths or roads.

The best way, though far from a perfect solution, I've found to deal with it is smoothing the wall first.

@gloriousyuri The problem with the wall connector is that it keeps wanting to mine the rock wall instead of build on it. Maybe that's because of Replace Everything, but I've always had that problem with any modded over-wall thing, only the Ludeon wall lights/oxygen pumps don't have that problem.

I'm too stupid to figure out how to make a "pole" that works under the roof. But for caves, you can use the wall connector (top right one on the 5th image)

Would it be possible to make a "power column" (+ one with a light) that works under roofs so I can run wires through caves without having to run conduits along the ground?

This mod and the base mod are amazing, it is so nice not having to run conduits everywhere, and these are both functional and stylish! To answer the guy below me, the one with lights add 1, the normal ones are -1

does this add beauty?

thanks, you too

That was fast
