    Woooow, looks really fantastic. What I like very much, that the mirror is connected via KNX. I will start building our EFH in the summer and also install KNX. That’s where your idea of connecting the mirror via KNX is just right. Otherwise top processing !! Great Greetings from Switzerland

    Does anyone know of a “fog free” shower mirror https://www.mistershaver.com/✪✪✪✪✪-fogless-shower-mirrors/ that really doesn’t fog up? I thought if I spent a little extra on the Sharper Image $40 model that it may actually work. Surprisingly, it lasted less than the $10 cheepie mirrors. Out of frustration, I’m willing to spend some bucks on one that works as advertised.

    Hi All, I’m an avid Raspberry Pi user, but didn’t have any incentive to build a magic mirror until recently a 23" TV I had in my study blew up one evening (literally went bang!). I took a chance on the LCD panel itself still being OK and ordered a compatible driver board from China on ebay. After some issues issues with the LVDS cable (an adaptor was needed) I managed to get the screen working. Unfortunately some of the LED backlights in one corner are faulty, but I’ve simply kept that area blank and it looks fine. I used Pilkington Mirroview glass, which works brilliantly (shout out to Mirrors and Glass here in the UK who were excellent). Despite complaints on the forum, I’ve used a Pi 3 A+, which works without issue, though I don’t have any particularly resource hungry modules. Some pics: [image: IMG-3802.jpg] [image: IMG-3810.jpg] [image: IMG-3791.jpg] So that I only needed one cable running to the mirror, I’ve used a single 12v, 5amp PSU. The LCD is powered directly by the 12v and I’ve used a DC-DC step down board to power the Pi. I’ve attached a Pimoroni OnOff shim and wired that to a momentary switch at the bottom of the frame. There is also a PIR protruding from the bottom of the frame, it faces straight down, but it has a 100 degree FOV and picks up movement without issue. It’s powered directly from the 12v as the 5v pins on the Pi are covered by the shim. [image: IMG-3818.jpg] The frame consists of moulding glued to strip wood, which leaves a lip for the glass and panel to rest against. [image: IMG-3812.jpg] The PIR and the power switch at the bottom of the frame. This is my most ambitious Raspberry Pi project yet, and I had a lot of fun putting it together. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions. Cheers, Simon.

    @dæmoneyes yes correct, but if you aren’t going to do a mirror bigger than let’s say a A4 paper then you can ask Pilkington to send you a free sample. I did and they sent it without any hassle. 😉

    Not all feeds are created equal…there are rss and xml feeds…try a newsreader that will do both…ie the stock newsfeed module does that just fine… I’ve also written one that does both…so look for a module that will work :)

    With me everything is fogged up except the place where the display is the minimum warmth is enough to keep the fog away

    @dæmoneyes - It’s probably another genius idea from the same guys who made “flammable” and “inflammable” mean the same thing.
