What Is Daylight Detector in Minecraft?

Daylight Detector is a Redstone device that measures sunlight strength and emits a Redstone signal accordingly. Its signal strength ranges from 0 to 15 based on the sun position. Right-clicking it switches between day mode and inverted night mode.

How Does Daylight Detector Work?

  • Emits a Redstone signal of 0-15 based on sunlight level during the day.
  • Right-click to switch to inverted mode - emits a signal when it is dark and less during daylight.
  • Signal is blocked by blocks above it that prevent direct sky access.
  • Break fastest with an axe.
