I'm not sure what would work specific to your needs.  For what I
needed in Fireflies:  Try a simple high ambiance and high
transperency.  With the latest stuff in POV (I used POlyray)
maybe even some glow.  Kill specularity to 0.  It should be a
very simple texture.  Make sure the cone is as long as you want
the light to be.

If you want fade-off, try a gradient texture along the top to
bottom axis of the cone that fades color from high values to
black... add a *little* noise to it if you like.
