A lever will also be removed and drop itself as an item:
- if its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed
- if water Water Transparency Partial (-2 to light) Luminance No Blast resistance 500 (Flowing) 500 (Still) Tool Renewable Yes Stackable N/A Flammable No Drops None Data values Flowing Water dec: 08 hex: 8 bin: 1000 Still Water dec: 09 hex: 9 bin: 1001

flows into a lever`s space, the lever will be destroyed without dropping itself as an item.
Trivia

Usage
A lever can be used as a player-switchable redstone power source.
- Placement
- To place a lever, use the "Use Item/Place Block" control (right-click, by default) while aiming at the surface to which it should be attached.
- A lever can be attached to the top, side, or bottom of any full solid opaque When leaves are opaque (in "fast" graphics), they completely block rendering. When leaves are transparent (in "fancy" graphics), the world behind them is also rendered. Opacity (and its inverse, transparency) are properties of blocks with block (stone, dirt, blocks of gold, etc.), or to the top of an upside-down slab Slab Transparency Double slab: No Single slab: Partial (blocks light) Luminance No Blast resistance Wood: 15 Stone: 30 Tools Renewable Stone: Yes Wood: Yes (except Fake Wood) Cobblestone: Yes Stone Brick: Yes Purpur: Yes Quartz: or upside-down stairs Stairs Transparency Partial (blocks light) Luminance No Blast resistance Wood: 15 Stone: 30 Sandstone, Quartz, Red Sandstone: 4 Tools Renewable Cobblestone, Stone Brick, Wood, Purpur: Yes All others: No Stackable Yes (64) Flammable Wood: Yes (but not to the bottom of a right-side-up slab or stairs). When placed on the top or bottom of a block, the lever will configure its orientation to be in-line with the placing player.
- When placed on the side of blocks, down is on and up is off. On the top or bottom of blocks, on is north or west, off is south or east.
- Activation
- To activate or deactivate a lever, use the "Use Item/Place Block" control (right-click, by default). A lever can be turned on and off as fast as it can be clicked.

Data values
Every lever has an ID name of minecraft:lever and stores its orientation and activation status in its block data. A lever also has a block state which is expected to replace the functionality of block data in a future version.
Block data
A lever`s block data stores its orientation, and whether it is active:
| Bits | Values |
|---|---|
| 0x1 0x2 0x4 | A three-bit field storing a value from 0 to 7:
|
| 0x8 | If this bit is set, the lever is active. |
Block state
- See also: Block states
Name See the definition of the block states. For the files that determine block models, see Models#Block states. Block states are extra pieces of data that further define a block. Contents 1 List  | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
facing | northsoutheastwest | The block-face on which the lever is mounted. The direction from the block the lever is attached to, to the lever. For instance, a lever placed on a south-facing wall will face `south`. |
up_x | A lever mounted on the floor, pointing east when off. | |
down_x | A lever mounted on the ceiling, pointing east when off. | |
up_z | A lever mounted on the floor, pointing south when off. | |
down_z | A lever mounted on the ceiling, pointing south when off. | |
powered | truefalse | True if lever is `on`, providing power. |

Activation
Levers differ from Buttons in that the charge they provide is stable. Once clicked, a Lever will remain on or off until clicked again. Clicking a Lever also causes a visual change as the shaft of the device moves from one side to the other. Their stable nature makes Lever well suited to controlling devices that need to remain in one of two states for an indefinite period, such as minecart tracks or locking mechanisms in advanced circuits.
When placed on the side of blocks, up is OFF and down is ON. On the top of blocks, ON is south or west, OFF is north or east.
Bugs
- There is a glitch where you can activate a lever two times without clicking it.{{Blo
