Spawnitem: Changing Particles

So I've been trying to change the particles of a teleporter to a different color, as well as make them emit a different color of light. Here's what I've been using:

Code:

/spawnitem avianteleporter 1 '{"particle":{"color":[180,0,0,0],"light":[180,0,0]}}'

I found that the color and the light of the particles does not change, so I decided to try changing it to a completely different type, which doesn't seem to work either.

Could somebody please tell me where I'm going wrong here?

 

I'd be interested in knowing about this, since it'd be strange if particle effects can't be changed with objects. I mean, with armor, you can add particles to it even if it normally doesn't have any, and even if you want to give it an almost epilepsy-inducing screen-wide cat particle effect. Why that thing is in the vanilla game I'll never know. Anyway, I hope someone can figure it out/confirm that particle effects on placeable objects can/cannot be changed with spawnitem.

 

There isn't a precedence for this? I can't be the first to try modifying objects using /spawnitem, am I?

 

Not much that I can find. Most of the time, when people use spawnitem, they use it for weapons and clothing rather than placeable objects, despite how gorgeous the latter can look if done intelligently: https://www.reddit.com/r/starbound/comments/6cez59/so_this_is_what_ive_been_up_to/.
