ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for a portable water resistent rotating mirror device which may be conveniently affixed to a bathroom wall or placed on a counter surface and which prevents the accumulation of moisture on a rotating mirror in a high moisture environment such as hot showers or saunas. The device comprises a water resistent housing having a generally hollow interior for containing a battery-powered motor which can be activated with a water resistent control switch mounted on a front portion of the water resistent housing. The motor is directly connected to the mirror so that actuation of the motor in turn rotates the mirror at high angular velocities. Attached to the back of the water resistent housing is a suction cup which can be affixed to a vertical wall by compressing the device against the wall. In addition, a pivotal bracket is connected to the lower, rear portion of the water resistent housing. The bracket may be pivoted outwardly to provide a means for supporting the device on a substantially flat counter.
