Is it possible to have light like the pip-boy in power armor in 76?

I have looked around but found nothing relevant.

 

I didn't use power armor in previous Fallout games because I didn't like it and it wasn't necessary. I've found that it is necessary in FO76 - it's vastly superior to other armour, especially the armour I can make. What makes power armor bordering on unusable for me is the ridiculously bad light. A single dim short-range very directional torch. Ridiculous. A portable home computer has a vastly superior light to my military spec nuclear powered personal tank? It makes no sense. A lot of FO76 is very dark, which is right for a rural area at night and unlit mines and building interiors. Being able to use the pip-boy light in power armour would make the game much less annoying to me, enough to be somewhat enjoyable rather than more irritating than enjoyable.

 

Am I missing something, some obscure setting somewhere? Or an ini file edit, maybe? Even for Bethesda, this is a dumb decision. Surely it can't be meant to be that bad, even for Bethesda in it's current "let's see how annoying we can be to our customers" mood?

My first set was Raider Power Armour and its lamp was terrific. Not as good as the pipboy, but better than the other types of PA. Have a look to see if this works for you...

 

I've got to the point now that I run Excavator armour melee build and pretty much just hit everything I see moving... Don't even need to look
