The Lever is a manually toggled redstone power source. Right- clicking flips it on or off, strongly powering the block it is attached to and sending a full-strength signal through adjacent redstone dust, repeaters, and comparators.

  • Trapdoor and Door Switch — Commonly placed beside doors or trapdoors as a manual on/off control that does not reset like a button.

Found In

  • Villages and structures — Occasionally found pre-placed near village or structure mechanisms.

FAQ

What tool do I need to mine a Lever?

None required. Any tool or bare hands break it, and it always drops itself.

How do I craft a Lever?

Combine one Stick and one Cobblestone at a crafting table to produce a single Lever.

Does a Lever stay powered after breaking it?

No, breaking a powered Lever removes the redstone signal immediately, just like turning it off.

Can a Lever be waterlogged?

In Bedrock Edition, yes; in Java Edition, Levers cannot be waterlogged.
