Want to buy smart mirror

I want to buy a smart mirror and install it in my bathroom. Will the steam from my shower damage the mirror?

Hi, I’ve made the smart mirror and placed it in the bathroom. I also thought that steam and humidity could damage the circuits. I’ve been with it for over a year now and never had any problems.

You can see it here:

Also I have to say that I have put in different points of the circuitry, some bags of silica gel like these to absorb the humidity:

I also have to say that all the electronic part is inside the frame that holds the whole structure, so it is not in direct contact with moisture.

I hope it helps.

Regards.

Thanks for your good suggestion. I hope that it will help me.
And silica gel idea so much interesting.

Any smart mirror should be designed to withstand those kinds of conditions, these kinds of items are often intended for the bathroom area so a good manufacturer should keep this in mind when making the product and prepare it so that it can resist moisture or protect the parts in some way.
