great vid! I originally thought since my bathroom light fixture/wires were higher up that I would've needed to lower all of the wires towards the center for these mirrors but its great knowing these mirrors have such a long electrical wire.
About the wires. You said black to black and white to white. Is it not grounded by a third. wire for grounding. I have the same in my bathroom a wall outlet for shaving 220V (europe) not grounded Electricity and water is always dangerous. I want to buy a mirror led and ir heating but i dont want to take the risk not grounding it . Take care thanks for the video!
Absolutely. You would just need to either install an outlet tied into the light or direct wire in existing box. Be sure to consult an electrician for expert advice.
In your opinion, does the light output of the mirror compare with the original vanity light? I want to do this in our bathroom but I was thinking I might need to add some can lights for additional light.
Howdy partner! The light output is very good, but not quite as bright as a double or triple vanity light. We have another video installing a lighted vent fan cover. We added that after the mirror and now the bathroom is brighter than with the vanity light. Good luck!
That's the way it should be done running the wire inside the wall. Put in an old work box and also a recessed box and use the plug. Pull wire from the vanity light and you can use them both and it'll meet code. A bit sketchy running the wire up the wall like this video.
