Dazzle 2
by quat
Dazzle 2 is a Fabric decoration mod that adds a large set of redstone lamps, plus light sensors, invisible torches and projected light panels.
What it does
The mod's main content is redstone lamps: 320 of them across 5 styles and 16 colors, in digital and analog forms, each in regular and inverted variants. The lamps can be placed for lighting builds, and the set is meant to cover most decorative needs without extra mods.
A light sensor reacts to block light in the way a daylight sensor reacts to sunlight. The mod also brings invisible torches, a dimmer stand-in for the vanilla redstone torch, projected light panels whose beams reach 45 blocks, and colored flare lights that give off particles. Client and server both need the mod, so it is installed on each side.
Files are published for Fabric only, for game versions 1.16.5 and 1.17, with 1.0.0.17 for 1.17 as the latest file from 2021-06-09. The code is under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

Block-light sensor
The light sensor detects block light, working in a similar way to a daylight sensor.
Projected light panels
Panels cast light up to 45 blocks away, lighting large areas from a single placed block.
Invisible torches and flares
Invisible torches provide light without a visible model, and colored flare lights emit particles.
Compatibility

What the author says
This is Dazzle 2, a mod that adds way more redstone lamps than you'll ever want or need. And a few other things that I thought were interesting. But mostly redstone lamps. And there's more on the way! Hope you have a good time with it.
