I tested unplugging pin 3 and you are right: the display / backlight ist switched off 👍
I also got me a voltmeter and checked the currents :) seems to be identical to your setup. So next, I’ll connect a PIR, check the current and connect it as you described.
Thanks!
I found the description of the board and pins:

“CN2” describes the pinout for the invertor.
Pin 3 is backlight on/off and pin 4 is for the adjustment of the brightness.
Thanks Tomas,
unfortunately I don’t have a voltmeter or an oscilloscope at hand. I hope I’ll figure it out somehow :/

Hi Tomas,
your mirror looks great!
I´m planning to do the same (and I even looked at the same Ikea mirror :) ) and was wondering how you solved tha backlight handling exactly.
You talked about an invertor in one of your posts. My controller has an invertor, too. Can you tell me if your solution would work here aswell?
This is the board with the controller: http://www.ebay.de/itm/TV-HDMI-VGA-AV-USB-AUDIO-control-board-for-15-6-B156HAN01-2-1920x1080-IPS-LCD-/361128251020
Thanks :)
I used an Asus MB169B+ which is an external USB C monitor. It’s extremely thin, but I had to get a controller on eBay, since the included controller has only the USB-port (and uses DisplayLink).
