I have no problem dimming the instrument-lights , based on percent of max 
voltage * dimmer factor ...  I use :
setprop(outPut~"instrument-lights",((bus_volts * bus_norm) * INSTR_DIMMER) * 
srvc); 
works fine for me ...

I personally dont see why you need to know the exact voltage for light 
intensity ... but I'll go with instrument-lights-norm if it makes everyone 
happy.And it makes a lot more sense to make it a part of the electrical system 
than a separate /sim/model/property for every dimmer switch ...
