A Redstone Repeater is a Redstone-related Block that was added in Update 0.14.0. It is used in Redstone circuits.

Obtaining

Redstone Repeaters can be obtained by Crafting them in a Crafting Table.

Crafting

2 Redstone Torches + 1 Redstone + 3 Stone => 1 Redstone Repeater

Usage

Since Redstone signals decay when travelling, a Redstone Repeater repeats this signal up to full strength, allowing for a new 15 Block travel distance. By tapping the Redstone Repeater the delay of the Signal can change from 1 tick (0.1 s) up through 4 ticks (0.4 s). By connecting more Redstone Repeaters, greater delays can be created.

Redstone Repeaters can also detect if the block connected to the Redstone Repeater is powered or activated. If so, the Redstone Repeater will send a full strength signal onward. Redstone Repeaters also lock the direction of the signal, as a diode, as signals can not go backwards through a Redstone Repeater.

Locking

A powered or non-powered Redstone Repeater can be locked in its current state if another powered Redstone Repeater is facing into the first Redstone Repeater.

Trivia

Redstone Repeaters are often used with Note Blocks to make songs of greater lengths.
While Redstone wire picks up power from the Block beneath, the Redstone Repeater does not do this. This allows for smaller circuits in some cases.
Redstone Repeaters can also be placed parallel to another Redstone Repeater (or Redstone wire) without being connected as two parallel Redstone wire would do.
They are often confused with Redstone Comparators.
Redstone Repeaters can be placed underwater and are fully functionnal.

+===Locking===
+A powered or non-powered Redstone Repeater can be locked in its current state if another powered Redstone Repeater is facing into the first Redstone Repeater.
 ==Trivia==
+* Redstone Repeaters are often used with [[Note Block]]s to make songs of greater lengths.
-*When the [[Player]] taps the Repeater, one of the Redstone Torches will move. It indicates that the Player moved it by one tick. One tick is equivalent to 0.1 seconds.
+* While Redstone wire picks up power from the Block beneath, the Redstone Repeater does not do this. This allows for smaller circuits in some cases.
-**By default, the maximum delay that can be created by a Repeater is 4 ticks, equivalent to 0.4 seconds.
+* Redstone Repeaters can also be placed parallel to another Redstone Repeater (or Redstone wire) without being connected as two parallel Redstone wire would do.
-**More Redstone Repeaters must be used in order to make longer delays.
+* They are often confused with [[Redstone Comparator]]s.
-*If the player places a Repeater in one direction, then places another in a ninety-degree frame, the texture line going across the second Repeater will have the same texture as [[Bedrock]]. (as seen in the two pictures above)
-* Redstone Repeaters are often used with [[Note Block]]s to make long length songs.
+* Redstone Repeaters can be placed underwater and are fully functionnal.
-* A large number of Redstone [[Items]] were added in [[Update 0.13.0]]. However, Repeaters were not added until Update 0.14.0 in Redstone's second phase.
-* Redstone Repeaters can be used to make a continous Redstone signal.
-* Whilst Redstone wire picks up power from the Block beneath, the Redstone Repeater does not do this. This allows for smaller circuits in some cases.
-* Redstone Repeaters can also be placed parallell to another Redstone Repeater (or Redstone wire) without being connected as two parallell Redstone wire would do.
-* They are often confused with the [[Redstone Comparator]].
-* There is a Redstone Repeater that is already powered, but it is available only through Inventory Editing.
-*Repeaters can create temporary [[Airlock]]s if placed underwater.
-*Before Update 0.14.0, since Redstone Repeaters didn't exist, alternative Repeaters were created to make complex Redstone circuits.
