Powered comparators won't change to the on-state texture, just the torches change texture.
That causes them to not emit any light when powered.

Ok guys, I downloaded the newest snapshot (two times cuz there was a crash bug) and the bug from this texture is still not fixed. Do something on it. (13w06a)
@Draven: Well, until this bug is fixed, you can preview it by giving yourself 150 ("/give yourname 150") and placing it. It's the currently unused, proper lit comparator.
Thanks, hadn't noticed this. The comparators will not give off any light, though, due to the "on" state is stored in meta data instead of switching blocks.
I think, seeing as the correct lit form of comparators exists as ID 150, and Jeb said the on state is metadata rather than switching to this block, it's likely intended. When comparators first came out, didn't they produce light? I'd imagine this was disabled due to the lag caused by comparator clocks - for the same reason redstone blocks do not produce light.
Confirmed, this also causes it to not emmit any light.
