Bathroom "behind" the mirror LED light (strips?)

3 months ago

Dear all, thanks again for helping out.


Just doing research here. It looks like an bathroom mirror with integrated LED light ("on" the mirror LED light) may not be a good idea, as the LED light can go bad after few years then you may need to replace the entire mirror+integrated LED again. So it seems that a possibly "separate" lighting solution for "behind" the mirror LED light strips (with driver/transformer) might be a better idea. Can people please share your experience about this? I asked ChatGPT about this and there seems to be a lot of possible different approaches (including "LED Strip Lights with High CRI," "Chip On Board aka COB LED Strip Lights, or LED 'Light Bars', etc.). Which one would you recommend, for durability and easy maintenance? Also, if we have a "floating" vanity in the bathroom and wants to install "under" (floating) vanity light, does that LED light usually connect to the same dimmer switch with the "behind" mirror LED lights? Or should they have different dimmer switches? Any thoughs or experiences about this? Thanks again for sharing and helping!
