@fox Chris said that he will probably not make a second order.
@Goldjunge_Chriz said in Two way mirror order in Germany:
You do not have to do anything. I finally promised. A man a word
But I never thought it would be so much time and effort. So I think that it will be a one-time thing
I’d like to confirm my order with the measurements 0.36 x 1.0 m (0.36 m², paying 0.4 m²), polished edges.
@Goldjunge_Chriz My current order is a 0.36 x 1.0 m mirror for a 27 zoll monitor like this.
I will (probably) use the BenQ GL2760H (contrast 1000:1, brightness 300 nits = 300 cd/m²).
Will I have any problems with bleeding when the mirror is so much larger?
@strawberry-3.141 I’ll use the two way mirror form Germany (light transmisson 24 percent)and (probably) the BenQ GL2760H (contrast 1000:1, brightness 300 nits = 300 cd/m²) if you can get something out of it.
@strawberry-3.141 How bad could it get? Sorry, I have no experience with mirrors.
Do you have any pictures how it could look like?
(I changed/updated my first question)
Is there any downside when the mirror is bigger (*1,5 or *2) than the monitor behind it?
For example my current idea would look like this:
Hey,
I am looking for the last part of my magic mirror, the monitor.
When searching for a good monitor, the question arises which monitor panel to use.
I read that IPS panel are better than their alternatives, but is it worth the ~100€ price increase?
Currently I am looking at the BenQ GL2760H as a TN monitor (185 €) versus the Dell U2414H (250 €).
I’d like to confirm my order, too.
Size: 0.36m * 1.0m (I get the exact size on monday or tuesday. Is there any way that I may change it then? Max 4 cm change)
Area: 0.36m²
Location: Passau, Germany
Additional comments: Polished edges
Delivery please
I’d like to order a mirror, too. I am still not certain of the size, but it will be around 1.0 x 0.34 to 0.4 m (I will give you my final measurements tomorrow evening). I live in Passau right now, so pickup is not a option for me.
One question: How do the edges (polished, …) change the price? I am sorry, if you have already mentioned it, but I did not read every answer in the thread.
Any update?
My plan was to use the same smart mirror as you. Were you able to fix the problem?
What screen did you use?
@bhepler Which picamera did you use? The normal or the NoIR version?
Hey,
I want to build a magic mirror for my wardrobe and therefore it should be as thin as possible (similiar to this normal mirror).
I guess that a laptop screen would be the best solution, but does anyone have experience with a thin monitor or tv?
And can anyone recommend a good laptop screen?
Hey,
I am currently looking for a way to turn my magic mirror on/off depending on when somebody is close to it.
Does anyone have experience with a PIR sensor, the picamera or any other hardware I could use?
