Upgrading Mirror Mark II

Thats a monster Magic Mirror!
Its looks great!
Fantastic job!
I would recommend placing heat shrink tubing over the female spade connectors that you route to the internal power strip when you revise it again. Less chance of short that way. -
@BD0G - Yeah, that’s a good idea. Right now, so long as nobody bumps it, it should be okay. The spade connectors include a little bit of insulation at the joint where you crimp them down. The plug really is a nifty little addition.
-
@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.
-
@bhepler please show us how change the globe for looking like your globe…
-
@BD0G thanks for the info, it’s good to know!
-
Awesome mirror!
Awesome beard too, btw ;)
-
@Fozi On his YT page he mentions this is a video on a loop, not a MagicMirror module.

Whats the globe code and the rotating text? I like that a lot.
