Summary
This mod allows you to make your carryable light sources from any mod require fuel to function.
It keeps track of the fuel usage, i.e. turning it off won't result in a reset on the duration.
Upon depletion, the fuel will be automatically added to your light source to refuel it, if you have the necessary fuel item in your inventory. Otherwise, your light will be unequipped.
What you need to do
Set the light sources, their respective fuel, and durations via ini file. How to do that?
You need to put the EditorIDs and/or FormIDs of the items you want to use as light sources and fuels in the ini file. That's it!
The keys in the INI for each source must be unique to that source.
(In this context, a key is what is written on the left-hand side of each equality, i.e. source1 in source1 = Candlelantern01)
Use the same key for the fuel and duration of the same source to match everything with each other. See Examples section below.
How to find Form/Editor IDs
You can use zEdit, xEdit, or the console command help.
An example in xEdit is shown in the Images section.
Installation/Uninstallation/Update
Safe to install/uninstall/update whenever.
No Esp no scripts. Just SKSE plugin. So you need to have SKSE installed.

One last thing
What this mod essentially does is that it allows you to wear an item for a specified amount of time if you have the required "fuel" item in your inventory. When you equip your main item, the secondary item that you set as "fuel" will be consumed and you will be able to wear your main item for a specified amount of time before it gets unequipped.
This mechanic is not limited to items that have light.

You need to put the EditorIDs and/or FormIDs of the items you want to use as light sources and fuels in the ini file. That's it!
- To be able to use EditorIDs, you have to have po3's Tweaks installed. Otherwise, you need to use FormIDs.
- You can still use EditorIDs together with FormIDs, if you have po3's Tweaks.
- The durations are given in in-game hours. If you do not provide a duration for a source, it will be set to 8 in-game hours.
- Yes, you can assign different fuel items to different light sources.
- (0.4a) You can assign different fuel items to the same light sources.
