    Nice!

    You say that the motion sensor is very sensitive. Do you get any false positives or is it sometimes it doesn’t trigger when it should?

    I like the idea of an USB extension! Why didn’t I think of that… 😉

        I love this! What a great dashboard! The colours, the layout, the features/modules you are using! I really like the “Hood Family mobile phones” module! What a brilliant way of keeping tabs on who’s in and who’s out! Commute to different destinations, it’s great!

        I’m sure none of it is overly difficult to an experienced wizard, me however, it’s like learning Russian and Cantonese at the same time, my mind is melting! haha

        Would you be willing to share your config.js.sample, .css and any other relevant info (probably with instructions for the newbies like me) and for others to clone parts of your fantastic design?

          @Cato It always triggers when it should. The sensor is quite powerful though in that it will work through stud walls… even with the sensitivity at the lowest setting! Not really a problem as the Mirror is downstairs in the house so when people are in the mirror is ‘on’ but come bed time and when the house is unoccupied the mirror turns off.

            I have removed api keys, destinations, etc so anything in ITALICS you would require adding your own variable here as described in the modules.

            The Modules I used are:
            alert (default module)
            MMM-Remote-Control
            MMM-Snow (I only configure this ON during the holiday period!)
            clock (default module)
            calendar (default module)
            currentweather (default module)
            weatherforecast (default module)
            MMM-NetworkScanner
            calendar_monthly
            newsfeed (default module)
            MMM-Traffic (used three times, for different commutes)
            mmm-systemtemperature
            updatenotification (default module)

              You could remove the margins of the MM body, that way you would utilize more of the screen itself, since you have more mirror on the sides of the monitor :)
