Bathroom - 30" MagicMirror

I’ve asked 3 companies to do me an offer. So, if I understand correctly, the 15% is "perfect’?

I’ve read an article a while back, they tried a bunch of different mirrors with a few light transmissions variations (1%, 12% 20% and 40% If I remember correctly). Their conclusion was that 12% was okey and 20% was the best of them all.

And with the combined information I’ve read (not tested in real life however!) is that the general guide line is :

Anything below 3% will not be useful, I would say 5% would be absolutely minimum.
8-10% for darker rooms with no windows and limited lighting
15-20% for normal lighting and not placed next to windows and/or in sunlight
40% for bright rooms with lots of daylight

Do note, that higher light transmission also makes your screen edges more visible, this is due to the backlight of the monitor. so if you have a 40% mirror in a bright room and then turn the lights down the edges of the screen will be clearly visible.
