What is Waxed Oxidized Copper Bulb in Minecraft?
A waxed oxidized copper bulb is a version of the copper bulb that is fully aged and will not change any further. It has the same design as a regular copper bulb, but its color is a bright, verdigris green. The main purpose of waxing an oxidized copper bulb is to permanently preserve this final stage of oxidation. This is perfect for builders who want a fully aged, ancient look for their lighting fixtures. An oxidized bulb gives off the dimmest light of all the copper bulbs.
How to get Waxed Oxidized Copper Bulb in Minecraft
You can only get a waxed oxidized copper bulb by crafting it or by waxing a block in the world. To craft it, you will need one oxidized copper bulb and one honeycomb. To get an oxidized copper bulb, you must first let a regular copper bulb sit out in the open air until it becomes fully green. Then, you can combine it with a honeycomb in a crafting grid. The easier way is to place a regular copper bulb and wait for it to turn completely green. Once it is fully oxidized, just right click on it with a honeycomb to wax it and lock in that color forever.
How to use Waxed Oxidized Copper Bulb in Minecraft
The main use for a waxed oxidized copper bulb is as a decorative, permanent redstone lamp. It works just like a regular copper bulb, turning on and off when it receives a redstone pulse. However, because it is waxed, it will never change color or brightness. This is great for creating consistent and reliable moody lighting. If you ever change your mind and want the block to become brighter, you can remove the wax. To do this, simply right click on the waxed copper bulb with an axe. The wax will be scraped off, and you can then use the axe again to scrape off layers of oxidation.
