    @Kostosso not outdated… pm2 (node process manager) job is to start (at boot too) AND keep running any number of processes you can define the process in a json file (so you can have a pretty name vs the name of the script/executable) see the pm2_MagicMirror.json on my scripts site for the model I use in the install script or pm2 start xxx.sh (bash scripts MUST have .sh extension) if u start them directly) you can start your browser and also the python script with pm2…

    UPDATE! From a quick search I have done I decided that it is better to connect arduino and led strip on the same power supply. My led strip is a 3m ws2812b neopixel with 30pixels/meter which consume 60mA/pixel in full brightness so (60*90)/1000=5.4A. The power supply I am using is 5V - 6A so I think it anough for both since arduino’s only job is to send data to led strip. Please If someone has better knowledge of electricity correct me. Thank you.

    @Reif frame has an external connection box. for HDMI connections, don’t know how big it is. one is 5 inches tall https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00062213/ but maybe some are smaller https://www.techradar.com/news/the-samsung-one-connect-box-is-back-for-2021-but-something-needs-to-change the one I have on my 2017 82in tv is fairly small, thin [image: 1662811089494-20220910_064727-resized.jpg]

    @sdetweil No problem. I will visit the store again when he has the glass to see it myself and if it is possible to see it working. After I will make up my mind.

    @Fozi I’m using the psu that came with the RPi 3B+. I have no extension cables. The only things I have attached is the HDMI monitor, Bluetooth keyboard and the SD chip. I wouldn’t think that would be too much for standard psu I’ll take a look at Amazon and get something with a little more umph. Thanks all for the lessons. Dennis

    @N6NG You might also want to try pololu.com if you are looking to connect to the header on your existing Pi. This is link to their connector page Pololu Connectors

    @sdetweil It only runs a patched version of stretch right now. I am able to do the project I was wanting to do with it… at $55 it is a little pricey and a LOT more work to get running debian, but it is doing the job. Finally found a wireless adapter for the Libre and it is rock steady… Only thing I do not like is I can not seem to get it to boot from a usb drive has to be from sd card… Fun little learning experience…

    @Radu_Stancu I would really like to have a copy of your module. I’ve been working with the code you posted at the beginning of this topic thread and I’ve gotten tap added. But the wheel just crashes my flick. I’m building a mirror for my Dad and I’d like to surprise him with one he can control with the flick. It would really impress him. I hope you are still checking in on this magicmirror builders forum.
