27" Mirror with selfmade frame

How far does your radar detector detect through the glass?

Excellent work. That looks great!

@maxbachmann
Its in the middle behind the thick wood and it detects at least 4m. (would be more if there would be no wood, just the glass :-)
Due to the position across from my wardrobe thats fine but if the range is too faar for detection it would be possible to reduce it with a resistor.

Nice work, i see you used a radar sensor.
How and where exactly did you attach this?

Arjen

Very nice mirror. Looks great.
I am also curious about the prices of the mirror and shipping costs.

FYI: Glastroesch.de doesn’t ship their mirrors. They also do not directly sell to private people but give you a contact that does. Apparently they are around Ulm (for those that live close enough).

Hi kruemel,

good job… looks very professional.
Since I’m using the same RCWL0516 motion sensor I have also some questions:

How did you mount it that it is working through the glass?
I tried id with my Mirropane Chrome Spy 4mm but there was no detection trough the glass at all.
Maybe you can share some pictures especially of the motion sensor?

Thanks, onkelbobby
