Electric shaving mirrors commonly offer three power/connection options: plug-in (corded) power, hardwired connections that can be tied to a wall switch, and battery-powered models with built-in rechargeable batteries. Product listings will usually specify whether a mirror supports plug-in or hardwired installation and whether it includes a rechargeable battery.
Lighted shaving mirrors commonly provide three color temperatures—warm, natural (neutral), and cool—and dimming controls that range from three preset brightness levels to stepless adjustment (often advertised as 10%–100%). Many mirrors use touch controls for changing color temperature and brightness.
Mirrors can be wall-mounted (including French cleat systems that allow horizontal or vertical installation), surface- or suction-mounted for shower use, and electrically either plug-in or hardwired for wall-switch control. Product listings typically note the supported mounting hardware and power connection method.
Many mirrors include a memory function that saves the last-used color temperature and brightness. When power is restored—either by flipping a wall switch or plugging the mirror back in—these models will typically return to the saved settings rather than defaulting to a preset.
Shower and travel mirrors often include mounting accessories such as suction-cup mounts, wall brackets, or double-sided tape. Other common items are squeegees, charging cords for rechargeable models, and occasionally small extras like auto-fill adapters or additional mounting hardware.
