    @bhepler Yes , but the ends that plug into the Male Spades are at full AC potential. 110 V AC assuming you are in the states. Small strips of shrink tubing fit over the end of the plugs and heated to shrink down onto the exposed ends would be a nice addition.
    As long as you dont send this in to Underwriters Labratorories to have it certified as UL listed you may be fine for now.

    I built a plug just like that into the base I built for my 3 D printer and it works amazing!

      Wow, what a massive piece of mirror! I love the triple display setup. And regarding the reworked cabeling I have now some good inspirations for my own make over. Thanks!
      Btw, which module do you use for the spinning globe?

        @Fozi Just so you know. Others have reported that the spinning globe is very processor intensive and a standard Raspberry Pi can struggle with displaying it without stutters or hang ups.

                @Fozi On his YT page he mentions this is a video on a loop, not a MagicMirror module.

                      Yeah, I don’t know how I keep missing notifications for this thread. The globe is just a video clip that the company purchased through the marketing department. It’s all of 60 seconds long and is playing through VLC. The Magic Mirror software isn’t running on the center and right displays.

                      I worked out the command to play the video on a loop and with a borderless configuration and used a cron job to play it after boot.
