If you are not satisfied with 0.5 value (0000003F), I'm pretty much sure that you will be with stock TDW settings 1.0 (0000803F) but in this case , units will be "too blind" during the dusk (at least for my taste).

If a nighttime multiplier of 0.5 makes AI lookouts too sharp-eyed at night, and a value of 1.0 makes them too blind, with not trying an intermediate setting?

Else, I think one can play with the "start of nighttime value". If memory serves me well, that value is a threshold. When the ambient luminosity is bigger or equal to it, visual sensors have their maximum power (according to fog conditions, crew veterancy level, etc.); below it, sensor's effectiveness start decreasing proportionally to the decrease of ambient luminosity.

The following article and other similar studies might guide us into setting some (roughly) realistic values:
