Very nice job!!! I like it!

Is there a glow coming through from your monitor?

That’s what I’m worrying about when I build mine

Looks very nice. I like the Y-Splitter to only have one power cord. That’s what I will try as well, when I start building the mirror.

What is the blue light thing?

@Mitchfarino
There is no glow, if anything i would like my monitor to be brighter, for daytime use.

@yawns The y-splitter is a good idea I definitely recommend it. the blue light is the control buttons for the monitor, so I can change settings etc. It was a lot bigger/the size of the foot for the monitor so I cut it down to as small as it would go.

@olliewarren411 Hi, may I ask how you did the Y-splitter? Thank you!

@indigomejor Hi,
It’s a pre-made product just so I can power the raspberry pi and my monitor but only have one wall outlet in use.
