The front-lit mirrors offer three colour temperatures from the touch sensor. The backlit mirrors ship with a fixed neutral output that suits most bathrooms.
Warm. Evenings, soft skin tones, matches warm bathroom lighting
Neutral. The everyday setting, closest to daylight indoors
Cool. Daylight-accurate for makeup and shaving
Long press on the sensor, on the models that dim
Choose front-lit when the mirror is the main light at the basin, because it lights the face evenly without shadows. Choose backlit when you already have downlights or sconces and want a softer glow that sets the mood.
Every mirror runs on its own LED driver from a standard power point, or hardwired by an electrician, so no wall dimmer is needed and none should be fitted. Dimming, where available, is on the touch sensor.
The LED strips are rated for around 50,000 hours, which is decades of normal bathroom use, and are covered by the two-year warranty.
