Cool module,

i would like to know whether you have an idea to my following problem:

I did everything as recommended. Unfortunately the module is not shown on the screen.
I checked everything as well as if the DHT22 works.
Everything runs fine, unfortunately :D

this is an awesome module. Thank you for that!
Unfortunately, HVV does not support the API Key anymore.

Does anyone of you guys know a different way of getting the API key?

Thanks in advance :)

@tosti007 Thought the same and contacted the manufacturer. Unfortunatly they said it is not possible to enhance the stability with a super glue or something similar.

The positive point is that the mirror does not stand on the mirror. It stand in the frame. Therefore it should be ok, hopefully.

@schlachtkreuzer6

Yeah I know. It fell down on the front. After that I installed two “holders” for the frame. Now, it should not ever happen again. I guess you can feel my pain as I saw it. Nevertheless it still looks pretty cool and the broken corners are only visible if you stand right next to them or the sunlight shines on them.

Here is the final positioning :)

Dear guys,
I am finally done with my first MM2- project.
Thank you very much for your great support and ideas to finish this project.

There are only a few things left to work on:

• fix some errors with the DHT22-sensor
• find a GitHub module which shows the whole month with every iCal-entry. Also find the right positioning for it. I would like to position it in the Top/middle space (not top_bar, Ive tried it already :D ).
• enable wifi-connection. This hunts me since several months :D I still have no clue where the error is and how to fix it.
• find a Github module which enables me to send push -up notifications to the mirror. e.g. a friend goes into my room, looks a the running mirror and the mirror says something like "Hello XY, my name is Henry. It’s nice to meet you, you fag :D )

Best regards, Paul
You will find attached to this topic a few pictures.

Dear guys,

Ive tried to run this skript,nevertheless it’s showing me ‘undefined’ when I am running it in MM-Mode.
Ive already checked the Pin setup and it should be right. Furthermore Ive checked your advises in the posts above me.

Do you have an idea how to fix this error or even how to get an idea where the error is? :D

Kind regards :)

@Steff

Nice work done. Your idea with the LEDs is pretty cool.

I just thought about not running the monitor all the time, cause of overheating. My Mirror will be 5,5 cm thick so I think that there should be enough room, that the warm air can flow away.

Nevertheless, thank you for your input :)

Hey guys, I was wondering if you use a power switch for your setup?

My original idea, was to use the normal power cable and the module of @Jopyth .

Do you think this is a good combination, or should I use an extra powerswitch for the monitor and raspberry pi?

Furthermore I would like to ask if you use holes in your frame to support the cooling of your mirror?

Kind regards from Germany,
