Lightning Rod

A lightning rod is a block used to divert lightning strikes.

Breaking
Lightning rods must be mined with a stone pickaxe or better, or else it drops nothing.

Usage
Lightning rods redirect lightning strikes within an area of 16&times;4&times;16 blocks to the top of the rod, which can prevent flammable structures from catching on fire during thunderstorms, and it emits a redstone signal when struck by lightning. Lightning rods also divert the lightning created by a trident enchanted with Channeling thrown at an entity during a thunderstorm, but they won't output a redstone signal. Lightning rods can be oriented in different directions.

Channeling tridents thrown at lightning rods will always create thunder without the need for a mob.

Trivia

 * According to Minecraft Live 2020, Ulraf had the idea of lightning rods when a lightning strike burned down his wooden house.
