The Light Weighted Pressure Plate is a Redstone component that activates when entities or items are placed on it. Unlike Stone or Wooden Pressure Plates, it outputs a variable Redstone signal based on the number of entities or items present. A Light Weighted Pressure Plate is crafted using 2 Gold Ingots in a 3×3 crafting grid. It does not generate naturally and must be crafted by the player.

When placed, a Light Weighted Pressure Plate sends a Redstone signal that increases in strength depending on the number of entities or dropped items on it. The signal ranges from 1 to 15, with each signal level requiring 4 items or entities to increase. Unlike a Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate, it is more sensitive and responds to smaller numbers of items.

A Light Weighted Pressure Plate can be broken instantly by hand or with any tool. Unlike a Stone Pressure Plate, it can be activated by dropped items, making it useful for item-based Redstone contraptions, automated sorting systems, and item counters.
