LED RGB
by Ri0t
LED RGB lets redstone signals set the color of compact lights, with a Power Adjuster that can lock a chosen color.
What it does
The LED Block shows a color that follows the strength of the redstone signal it receives, from 1 through 15. Each signal level maps to its own color, so a single lamp can report a value at a glance. Once a player sets a specific color with the Power Adjuster, that LED keeps showing the chosen color no matter what signal arrives.
The Command Panel and the Power Adjuster are placed next to LEDs to configure them, and the mod is built with Create in mind, so its lights work as status indicators for machines and automation feedback. Create is an optional dependency, and Just Enough Items (JEI) is optional too. The mod is released under All rights reserved, is not open source, and publishes its source code for public viewing. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 and NeoForge 1.21.1, with version 2.0.0 on both.
Key features
Signal-based colors
The LED changes color according to the redstone signal strength it receives, with each level from 1 to 15 mapped to a color.
Locked colors
The Power Adjuster locks an LED to one chosen color, which then stays fixed regardless of the incoming signal.
Compact colored lights
Simple, compact configurable colored lighting that the redstone signal powers, suitable for decorative lighting and displays.
Status indicators
LEDs work as machine status lights, control panel indicators and automation feedback displays in Create-based builds.

How it compares
Mekanism Lights is published for Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, with the client and server environment and All rights reserved. Advanced RGB Lamps is NeoForge only, for 1.21.1, under the MIT License, so it suits a single loader. Colorful Campfires: Vanilla is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, for Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, and it covers campfires rather than redstone-driven LEDs.

What the author says
LED RGB adds simple, compact, and configurable colored lighting powered by redstone. The mod was designed with Create builds in mind, making it easy to create indicators, status lights, displays, and automation feedback systems. However, Create is not required and the mod works perfectly in any vanilla or modded world.
