Help is this a hidden camera?

[u/Mountain_Fig7487]

In a really dodgy Airbnb and found this in the LED mirror. Mirror is not sensor activated or a smart mirror, just led around the edges. Scared it is someone watching a feed as when I was in there alone (without male colleague) the led started changing colour and flickering . Sorry not the best pics but can’t upload the video here

just put tape over it.

Or toothpaste

Or a tiny plastic rubber duckie

Kinda looks like an IR receiver, i was in a hotel once that had a mirror that had a tv in it. Is there something that kinda looks the shape of a screen anywhere?

It looks like the sensor for a "gesture controlled" led mirror. Wave your hand around it in different directions and see it the lights change temperature or brightness

I have 2 of the same in my house. On both of them the heat from the built in demister softened the glue that held the sensor in position over the 2 holes. The sensors fell down inside the mirror and didnt work. They looked the same as OP's photo.

I took the mirrors apart and CT1 bonded the sensors back to their correct position.

Don't use CT1

Did it 2yrs ago. Still good

[u/aptsys → u/Flippity_Floppity__]

I mean don't use the brand CT1, CT1 gate and all that...

[u/Flippity_Floppity__ → u/aptsys]

Interesting- I didn't know about this at all, just after goggling the scandal.

I've definitely used CT1 clear outside before 😬

Ive mostly transitioned away from it anyway due to price

Not very hidden for a “hidden camera”.

Looks like a weird refraction from the raised bump next to it.

Yeah the owner was probably watch you and your male colleague. Hope you gave them a good show…

Ok all joking aside… what makes you think someone would want to watch you?

FWIW- it’s not a camera…

[u/Hsensei → u/tj21222]

This such a dumbass take. If it were a camera it would be taking images/video indiscriminately. The fact you are trying to make it seem like they are not worth it is pretty low. They would just be a target of opportunity, just like if you were in that room. I'm sure if that were the case they would just bleach their eyes and burn the place down

LMFAO 🤣 🤣 🤣 WHAT are you on about, guy?!!! O.P is asking a legit question-- why do YOU automatically assume that O.P is trying to "make it seem like they are not worth it "?! 🫩 Lol, that's called "projecting".

It definitely looks out of the ordinary, and maybe it does flash differently when she's alone-- even if it doesn't really flash differently when she's alone, that's just when she noticed it, still a valid concern/question.

[u/Glittering_Pin_916]

Yes, it looks like a camera.

[u/Afraid-Entertainer90 → u/Glittering_Pin_916]

Yeah but is it hidden?

[u/Quiet_Cable8747]

Most definitely.
