How to Check Light Level in Minecraft

Ever wondered how to keep your Minecraft base safe from those pesky mobs at night? It all boils down to understanding light levels!

So, let’s dive right into the question: How do you check the light level in Minecraft? This one simple trick can save your Minecraft haven from unexpected guests.

Quick Answer to Checking Light Levels

Pressing the F3 key on your keyboard (if you’re playing on PC or Mac) brings up the debug screen. This screen shows a lot of info, but what you’re looking for is the light level, listed as “Light” or “BL” for block light and “SL” for sky light.

This feature is super helpful for making sure your base is bright enough to stop monsters from spawning. The magic number? Make sure your light level is above 7. Monsters spawn in light level 7 or lower. Keeping it brighter keeps them at bay.
