Waxed Oxidized Copper Bulb block in Minecraft

Added in 1.21 Mined with: pickaxe Requires at least stone Stack size: 64

The Waxed Oxidized Copper Bulb is waxed, frozen in time. A copper bulb toggles its light on or off with each redstone pulse, and shines less as it oxidizes: 15, 12, 8, then 4. Copper ages in four stages, from orange to green, unless you wax it with a honeycomb; an axe scrapes off one stage or the wax. All stages work alike; the Copper Bulb page is the fresh one.

It is made with the Crafting Table from Blaze Rod, 3 × Waxed Oxidized Copper and Redstone Dust (other recipes also exist). It is mined with a pickaxe (at least tier stone). It gives off light up to level 4, depending on its state.
