That's a prety big container. If the light_source is outside of it, even with that
reduced 
extinction and relatively low density, almost all of it gets dispersed out and can't
reach whatever 
there is to light up. Try reducing the density even more, or increase the light's
intensity: start 
with LightColour*10 and work up as needed.
Using intervals 1 samples 100 can actualy be faster than intervals 5 when using method
3 (default).
