You can now illuminate dark areas in Minecraft 1.16, with this mining helmet.
Miner’s Helmet 1.19.2, 1.16.5 and 1.15.2 is a mod that will allow us to make a mining helmet, which once placed on the head of our character will illuminate around us, which will save us from having to place torches on the floor or on the walls every now and then. In addition, we can also use it to explore the deep sea, as we can see in the image below.
As the helmet must be placed on the character’s head, we will lose some protection compared to a helmet that simply offers defense. Even so, and although it is not much, this helmet also offers some protection. This helmet can be manufactured by the players, although we can also get it from hostile entities, since some of them can be generated with a mining helmet on their heads.
