About this mod
While in 3rd person, weapons are automatically lowered down, this is a vanilla "feature". Sometimes you do not want that to happen though, like when your weapon has a flashlight attached and the latter is turned on. This quick edit addresses such case. Requires Baka Framework.

bobrobbow has figured a very elegant solution to a collateral effect arising from Automatically Lowered Weapons: weapons with flashlights attached & turned on still point to the ground every 5 or so seconds.
That is only for 1st person perspective though, and I'm one of the dozen weirdos that likes to play in 3rd person.
Vanilla automatically lowers your weapon in 3rd person, you don't need a mod for that - but 3rd person also suffers from the same collateral effect.
So, I've done some research for 3rd person and found an old mod that still seems to be working properly: Button Lowered Weapons
However, I wanted something automatic when a flashlight is on, like the previous mods mentioned.
After fiddling with some files I've got something that worked here, didn't even need to mess with scripts :)
For those interested, Mcgan has found what entry to edit here.
I've merely changed the isPlayer condition to use Baka Framework's PipboyLightActive instead.
From my testing, if you already were in the "relaxed" state when you turn the Pipboy on, your character will remain in such state.
However, if you turn your Pipboy off while your weapon is "up", your character will change into the "relaxed" state.
Disclaimer, I've been modding for myself for a huge time but I have never publicly released a mod.
I've "learned" everything by trial & error and reverse engineering, I barely know what I'm doing.
So if your PC explodes after you download this mod I'm afraid I can't help you.
