    Looks like their “Vanity Glass” has a 70% reflection and 25% transmission. The Dielectric however has a 40 reflection and 60% transmission, designed for very bright rooms. They have a comparison of the different types of glass on their site: http://www.twowaymirrors.com/smart-mirror/

    A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

      I think mine has 70% reflection and 30% transmission. Okay I understand it now so their Dielectric would only make sense in bright environments.

      We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

        Aaaaand that “Vanity Glass”, at the size of the monitor I’m using (22x15), with polished edges, would cost $600 … I’m actually afraid to see what the full size that I plan to use would cost.

        Ok, I checked … $2k. I’ll get right on that. :)

          Haha hence why I went with the acrylic. It cost around $60.

                Yeah, the acrylic, at the monitor size (22x15), would be about $103 … But I’m putting it on a wall, a much larger piece … that’s gonna be 'spensive!

                    I got my two mirrors (24" and 27") here (germany): https://www.myspiegel.de/spionspiegel-pg-2102.html
                    Good quality! I’ll post some pictures soon.

                    At first I wanted to give foils a try, but the result was terrible.

                      If only people would understand this and not try to save a few bucks on a +$200,- project … ;)
