Exposed Copper Bulb
minecraft:exposed_copper_bulbThe Exposed Copper Bulb is the first oxidation stage of the copper bulb, a redstone-powered light source. It toggles instantly between lit and unlit states when pulsed with a redstone signal, emitting a slightly dimmer light than the fresh unoxidized bulb.
FAQ
How do you craft an Exposed Copper Bulb?
Combine an exposed block of copper, a blaze rod, and redstone dust at a crafting table to yield four bulbs, or let an unwaxed copper bulb oxidize naturally.
How bright is an Exposed Copper Bulb when lit?
It emits a light level of 12 when powered, slightly dimmer than the unoxidized bulb's light level of 15.
Does the Exposed Copper Bulb need continuous power to stay lit?
No, it toggles instantly between lit and unlit states on a redstone pulse and does not need continuous power to remain in either state.
Can you stop an Exposed Copper Bulb from oxidizing further?
Yes, applying honeycomb waxes the bulb so it no longer oxidizes; an axe removes wax or scrapes oxidation back one stage.
