Overview
Lightning Rod counts as a redstone block in Minecraft 1.21.4. Lightning Rod is made at a crafting table. Hardness 3 puts it in the middle of the pack for mining speed.
Mine it with a stone pickaxe or better, or you get no drop at all. Broken correctly, it drops itself. Because it is transparent it does not block light.
A full stack holds 64. It is crafted from Copper Ingot. Nothing is crafted from it.
