      Hi to all,
      this is my first try, i’m building a dual system magicmirror with garbage things :D.

      First of all bought an old paint with size that fit my trash monitors:

      disassembled:
      alt text

      so a build an electronics frame:
      alt text

      And:
      alt text

      Build a bracket for the little amazon echo:
      alt text

      So i’ve applied a mirror skin to my old glass (good enough to see how it works)
      Sorry no photos about that, i was in work DIY frenzy :)

      Now it’s time to the first run:
      alt text

      and right side:
      alt text

      Still TO DO:

      • paint frame in white
      • apply sonoff to the monitors (i will control via Alexa behind the mirror)
      • buy a real two way mirror (anyone know where in Bologna, IT)

      for any advice, i’m here and glad to know
      Bye!!!

        @n3fasto your google drive isn’t open for the public. So your pictures doesn’t work.

            @n3fasto contact Pilkington Italia/Saint-Gobain Italia to know a dealer near to you.

            Why did you prefer to use a REAL Amazon device instead of MMM-Alexa? :confused_face:

              @cr4z33 because of the blu round light when it wake up and because it was on my storage without any utility from a looong time :)

                  I remember all the grief i had trying to get that module working…and then stay working…i would’ve paid the small amount for the spot and be done with it too! LOL

                      This is the release candidate result :-)

                      alt text

                      Both monitors are connected with a single sonhoff and Alexa can Power On and Off the “mirror”
                      :-)

                                            Maybe he hopes to became a answer.

                                            I have asked this guy @N3fasto aprox. 3 weeks ago to explain me his configuration.

                                            No aswer!
