The protection meter block shows the amount of accumulated spawn protection in a specific chunk where it is placed, going from red to green to indicate a maximum of 16 days protection. With the new adjustable length of year this could mean more, or less, than a ½ month of protection. Note that the maximum spawn protection for a chunk is 6 months in game time, regardless of how few, or many, days the year makes up.

The protection meter is crafted with six [[Smooth Stone]], two glass, and a single [[Gem|Chipped Gem]]. The six pieces of smooth stone do not all have to be the same block (e.g. Andesite and Basalt), but they do have to be from the same stone type (i.e. Sedimentary, Metamorphic, Igneous Intrusive, Igneous Extrusive).

Usage

The protection meter block shows the amount of accumulated spawn protection in a specific chunk where it is placed, going from red to green to indicate maximum protection. The block will also emit light as the meter increases, increasing from a light level of 0 for no protection, to 8 for max.

Spawn Protection keeps hostile mobs from spawning in a 5x5 chunk area. It increases the longer a player stays in an area, and decreases when they leave. The protection meter is simply a way of knowing how much protection is in an area; it does not affect gain or loss of the protection.
