Lights draining battery, need help

does anyone know if the battery saver feature on the lights have an adjustment? I like to leave my rear hatch open when at the cabin, but the lights on the running board and all the interiors will weaken my battery enough that i can't start the engine. I bought a new battery the other day and the same thing happens.

obviously i could simply shut the hatch, but i would rather see if i can adjust the timer so that the lights turn off more quickly when the hatch is left open. right now, it takes about 30 or more minutes.

I also pulled the fuse one time, but that's too much hassle. Being able to change the timer from 30 min to 5 would be perfect.
