My in-wall mirror version 2.0

Nice work, what brand of mirror did you get? Mirroview?

And Btw… DeWalt, bra skit! ^_^

Excellent! I love the venting! Is it active or passive? In any case, a fantastic idea!

@broberg It is the Mirroview from Pilkington. Was able to get it from a local dealer here in Gothenburg. @Mykle1 It is the passive venting for the house. Not sure how well this actual works but it seems cool so far.

@ostfilinchen Thanks. Short version is that I have made a commandline switch in Home Assistant. In that way I can control everything in HA that is found in MMM- remote. Home Assistant is connected to Alexa and at the moment I can run commands like, Alexa, restart Magic Mirror. Or Alexa, Shutdown Magic mirror monitor. I am planning to make it work like Alexa, Show module X etc. In alexa I have created routines connected to smart devices. So the main setup is Echo plus, Home Assistant and cloud. Maybe you can to a translate of www.planet4.se where it is more in detail.

okay thanks. is it right, that u installed the home assistant on a other pi or do u install it on the mirror pi?

planet4

@ostfilinchen I have one Pi for magicMirror, One for Home Assistant, One for Grafana and Influx (I show info from HA like temperature, internet speed etc on my mirror) and also one running kodi and one for Retropie. I like to keep them separated to keep things simple in case of a crash. I could install HA on the mirror PI as well if I wanted to.
