A '''redstone torch''' is a non-solid [[block]] that produces a full-strength [[redstone]] signal on all sides adjacent to it, except for its attached block, and can power the block directly above it. It deactivates while the block it is attached to is powered.
 
== Obtaining ==
{{IN|java}}, the inactive redstone torch cannot be obtained as an item without commands. {{IN|bedrock}}, it can be obtained via inventory editing.<ref>In Java it is a block state and in Bedrock it is a entirely separate block.</ref>
 
=== Breaking ===
A redstone torch can be [[instant mining|broken instantly]] using any [[tool]], or without a tool, and drops itself as an item.
{{breaking row|Redstone Torch|horizontal=1}}
 
A redstone torch is removed and drops as an item if:
* its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed

[[File:Redstone torch as power source.png|thumb|Examples of redstone torch placement and behavior.]]
: To place a redstone torch, use the {{control|Place Block}} [[control]] while aiming at the surface to which the redstone torch should be attached.
 
: A redstone torch can be attached to:
:* the '''top''' or '''side''' of any full solid [[opaque]] block (stone, dirt, blocks of gold, etc.), including full-block mechanism components ([[command block]]s, [[dispenser]]s, [[dropper]]s, [[note block]]s, and [[redstone lamp]]s)
:* the '''top only''' or '''side only''' of certain block. See [[Opacity/Placement]].
 
: Redstone torches cannot be attached to the bottoms of any blocks.
