Making lighting instruments appear to be on?

I've searched a bit for this and haven't found any obvious info. In a scenic rendering, I have practical lighting fixtures in the set that are casting light as they should. Is there a way to have them actually look "on" with or without beams. I realize I can draw semi transparent cones to make the beams, but how about just having light showing at the face of the instruments so they look like they are on? Is there an easy way to do this without drawing in "glass" discs with the correct transparency. I've tried some of that and it changes the output of the lights quite noticeably. Thanks.
