Recommended mirror specs
-
@pauabaer 3% is to little, I know, mine is 3%. I would suggest minimum 10% light transmission.
-
Same place of action?
-
@pauabaer one ceiling light, no windows.
It’s visible, but not really good enough, you have to use a big text size to see it clearly.It works good with minimal light (i.e dark room with only monitors to light it up).
-
I took a picture of the mirror running, light and dark
Notice the thin text at the top, that’s the standard text-size of the MagicMirror.
The clock and weather forecast are in a bolder font.
-
@broberg thanks for the pictures. now i have an idea of the possible result.
how does the thickness influence the effect? -
@pauabaer the thickness does not change anything (the reflective coating is usually only applied to one side of the glass).
-
Thats obvious. Thought perhaps it has any influence. So the thinner the better because of light weight?
-
@pauabaer yeah basically,
I would probably go with a thicker mirror if making a large one piece mirror. (mine is 120x60cm and 6mm thick) -
wow. enormous weight!? :D
mine should be only 50x30 -
@pauabaer yeah a couple of kg, but not overwhelmingly heavy :)
