<![CDATA[Optimal Mirror - Light Transmission]]>Hi,

I am looking in different mirrors with different light transmissions. I was wondering if is there any standard % of the light transmission for the “optimum” smart mirror? Maybe people which they have opinion on this matter they can advice, post pictures and comment in order to create a kind of standard for the optimum solution.

Cheers,

Lee!

I’ve seen some say 50/50 is the best. You could also check the difference in mirrors vs. foils here - there is pictures and video about it :-)
