Been doing up the cloakroom.

At the moment there is an old shaver socket/light above the mirror. Which
contains an 18" florrie. Design wise, it looks its 40 years or so. And
also looks a bit lost, since the mirror is nearly the size of the room -
to make it look bigger.

Don't need a shaver socket these days, and something about 1 metre long
would look better. And warm white LED to match the main lighting.

Any suggestions what would look good without costing a fortune?

was told, by management, years ago that our daughter's bedroom didn't need
a shaver socket. Now, when she visits, there's nowhere to plug her tooth
brush into.

This is not as long as you desire, but I found it quite neat and
attractive.

I guess there is not much around between this and a 4ft tube
equivalent.

Are any under-cabinet lights made presentable enough to be on
show?

I thought electric toothbrushes were either chargeable, connected to a
13A socket with a wall wart, or had removable batteries charged
elsewhere (if at all).

Does anyone remember light pipes? Back many moons ago some surrounds of
mirrors used this type of plastic transparent stuff and a few bulbs to make
an evenly lit surround. Not much good as a light, it had to be said, but I
always thought they were cool.

Think like many things you'd once have plugged into the shaver socket,
they are now cordless.

But since I do have a shaver socket in the bathroom, I'm not going to pay
extra for one in the cloakroom.

socket.

Far far too small.

The existing mirror is 1200x900mm

I had a mirror specially cut to a shape for our downstairs bog. A glass /
mirror specialist may have some options that have worked.
