The fade_power you mention here is for the fading in the interior of object, NOT
light_source.

You may effectively need to use high rgb values for your lamp. It all depend on the
proportions 
between your scene distances ant the fade_distance. If tou want "nominal" illumination
at a distance 
of 1 and you have a fade_distance of 0.1 (10 cm), you need to multiply the light
intensity by 100, 
if fade_distance is 0.01 (1 cm), you need 10000* the "nominal" value.
Normal, physicaly exact, fade_power is 2. A fade_power of 1 can be used to simulate a
very long and 
narrow light_source.
