      Lets hope support for MM lasts eh?

      By then, “you’ll” be the support.

        So here’s a break down I used a 19" insignia tv monitor
        The mirror is a two way smart mirror from http://www.twowaymirrors.com/smart-mirror/

        The receptacle I used was a combo USB outlet. Is runs 5v 3.6a and powers the tv

        From
        http://m.homedepot.com/p/Leviton-15-Amp-Decora-Tamper-Resistant-Combination-Receptacle-and-USB-Charger-White-R02-T5631-00W/205730876?MERCH=REC-_-mobileweb_pip_rr-4-_-205092277-_-205730876-_-N

        Raspberry pi3 to run magic mirror

        Pir sensor from adafruit
        https://www.adafruit.com/product/189

        I used a three gang outlet box and since I only needed two spaces it allowed me to use a blank insert to mount the pir sensor in.

        As for the leviton USB outlet I spliced into an outlet I had already installed I spliced into it to run the wires to a gang box behind the mirror. Leaving a seamless look.

        I made the frame from poplar wood and stained it in ebony color

        As for modules
        I am using Wunderground
        Random quotes
        Flikr
        Compliments
        Date time

        I kept it simply because i am really new at this but overall I love it

        Sorry I don’t have more pics I didn’t even think about taking any during the process

                  @johnnyboy it was rather simply. I used https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor

                  To run it just remember to use bcm numbering instead of gpio numbering

                  I did extend the wires and I used a ferrite bead to ensure there would be no interference…

                  Since me tv doesn’t have a true power saving I used
                  https://github.com/phrazelle/mm-pir-hide-all

                  To create the illusion it shuts off basically turns the screen black until the pir senses motion

                        Magic mirror is complete and hanging!!! Ran
                        electric wires to plug in behind the mirror to conceal them. Then I integrated the motion sensor into the gang box so you really don’t see it!! Overall I love it
                        photo

                        Looks gorgeous! Awesome wood, I love the dark color. :)

                        Whats the exact glas-size you ordered for the mirror? You mentioned a 19" monitor, so my question basically is how much bigger the mirror glas is.
