This puzzle CHANGES COLOR with heat

[@KarenPuzzles]

Happy National Puzzle Day! I was a little hot and cold on today's puzzle (lol sorry), but I hope you enjoy all of my experimentation anyway 😅 Also, yesterday was the St Paul Winter Carnival Puzzle Competition, so stay tuned for a video all about that in two weeks!

[@cassandralyris4918]

Ooooohhh science question, YAY: so, color change technology works works by altering the crystalline structure of the paint/dye. Think of it simplistically as when it's cold the crystals are all leaning one way and when you heat them up they roll over in a sense. As the paint/dye ages the crystals get more and more sluggish to roll over, as it were. Your hands probably could've turned the puzzle when it was brand new. And to answer your questions, yes, they' could've had a simplistic design. They probably didn't because then it would have been easily solvable. My biggest gripe with this particular is actually the piece quality. They knew people would be moving these pieces around a LOT. They should've increased the piece stability accordingly. Well, I hope that answered your questions a little bit! Glad you stuck it out. Can't wait for the Ice show episode! I left Minneapolis around 15 years ago, and while I don't miss the cold I do miss the Ice show sometimes.

[@KarenPuzzles]

Thanks for the science info!

Wait, it's like eink except temp changing instead of pole changing?

[@latoniasprings]

You're probably the only person to ever finish this puzzle. Most people would have given up. I know I would have! I don't have a hair dryer!

[@Zireael83]

i would have given up right at the start ^^ i have a hair dryer but no diffuser & i don´t have a lightbox or a glass table where i could put a lightsource under ^^

[@NicoleKennedy-yr5yq]

This made me laugh more than it should have 😂😂

[@cyanuwu1864]

off topic (kinda) but i really recommend a hair dryer! its great for styling both long and short hair. unless ur bald, then the only real use you can get of it is solving a thermal puzzle

[@LexieUrLocalRat]

@@cyanuwu1864yeah lol.

[@davidlove236]

Dude, I would not have put up with that puzzle. At one point, I thought that you were going to declare it not worth it, but half of the video was still left, so I knew that you figured out something. Not only the hair dryer, but another tool that I won’t spoil for those that haven’t finished the video yet. This puzzle was certainly a test in perseverance!

[@lilicool1948]

You not spoiling it is amazing, I was half way watching the video. Appreciate that!

[@melissamendesbrandao]

I'm just waiting for the moment. You set the expectation!

[@ijlayugan4149]

That slowmo of the puzzles turning hot pink is actually satisfying. Also I love how clever Karen can be outside of puzzles and games. The frozen vegetable bag, heating bag/pad and hair dryer plus diffuser are smart solutions. Crazy that all those items mentioned were used for a puzzle lmao

[@Eiraqucam]

Your perseverance on this puzzle is genuinely inspiring

[@Serenity_Dee]

I'm guessing they used leuco dyes instead of liquid crystals, because that would allow them to create the gradient; they consist of molecules that switch between colorless (the hot state) and opaque (the cold state), which are made into microcapsules with the necessary reactants to facilitate the molecular state change. Essentially, with the right temperature and the right stuff around it, the molecule changes shape and either becomes opaque in a specific color (depending on the molecule) or transparent. Because the microcapsules are much larger than ordinary dye particles, there are some challenges to both durability and manufacturing, depending on the form factor, which is a somewhat technical way to say that putting it on paper makes it not last as long.

[@TassieLorenzo]

😮 I'm going to pretend that I understood most of those words! Thanks for the explanation Serenity Dee! 🏆

[@Scereyaha]

Also it means whatever gradient they put under it could have easily been a picture. It's like those heat reveal mugs. It doesn't work like a mood ring that seems certain. To be fair she might have cold hands in a relatively cool room but it still seems like false advertising if you have to have hot hands in the summer for it to change the way they say it will, and even then I don't know if anyone's hands are that hot.

[@Xeyxey0]

I've seen thermochromic pigments for sale that turn colorless at 25 C and the other was like 31 C, which seems around the temperature that was being advertised. I feel like a lot of people have cold hands that would prevent this from working as it was intended 😬 I don't think the under color was different enough to justify those terrible false fits eeeek

[@TemiDansoArt]

This is the best ad for the Dyson hair dryer with the diffuser attachment 😅

[@Alex_Off-Beat]

The hair dryer and lightbox was such a great idea. If you didn't need 5 hours and a lightbox to solve it then you could've done the puzzle in a sauna! Then you'd be able to write off a spa day as a video expense lol!

[@kastanie7445]

"I'm now going to put my puzzle in the freezer" sounds like a regular Duolingo sentence 😂

[@laughsingay]

My guess is that when the puzzle is very fresh your body heat would actually work, but the longer it's been sitting, the more heat you need to activate it. The reason I'm guessing this is actually because when I was in elementary school, after we had the whole fire safety talk, they would give out heat activated color changing pencils, that actually did work with your hand, and I would guess this puzzle uses a similar technology.

[@rosyd7145]

We need a “what Karen has said about jigsaw puzzles out of context” video 😂😂😂

[@rainbowkids78]

Great

[@jennifertrace3836]

Whoa. 😳 Thanks for taking one for the team. It’s safe to say I shan’t be purchasing this puzzle to solve. I don’t have a diffuser for my HAIRDRYER, so I’d be chasing pieces all over the place. 😂 I wonder how well a heating pad/throw/blanket would have worked under your foam board? Great video, as always!

[@KarenPuzzles]

It would have to get pretty hot and I’d be worried about starting a fire 😬

[@jennifertrace3836]

That certainly would add another level of difficulty to completing the puzzle. 😂🔥

[@Atalinay]

I wonder if heating up some plates wouldve worked. Then putting the pieces onto the plate and maybe covering it with one warm plate to preserve the heat. Anything else I can think of is a fire hazard possibly. I wouldn't have been able to finish it either way 🧩

[@DL_the_Squid]

my cat has a tendency to lay on my puzzles while im trying to work on them, i wonder if she would be warm enough 😂

[@SheLovesVampires]

@@Atalinay I like your idea!! I doubt it would work though, it looks as if the pieces needed direct hear on top of the "image", so unless the pieces would be upside down on a hot plate, I don't think the heat would have gotten through the pieces

[@bialk0]

I'm sure you're the only one who approached this puzzle with such dedication 😁 It's obvious that this puzzle was produced with this color-changing gimmick in mind as the most important aspect, not the actual solvability.

[@kavitajagannathan6329]

There is no way I would have been able to stick this out! The number of things it needs is mind boggling. I loved how you used so many different ideas to get through the puzzle.

[@imogenmangle]

The patience! The tenacity! The sheer resourcefulness on display with this monster! I truly can't believe you finished this -- not because I doubt your ability (We've all seen you solve some truly hardcore jigsaw puzzles) -- but because you would have been so justified in bailing. I feel like even having something as simple as a more unique piece cut would have saved this one! Like, at least in that case you wouldn't have needed the literal lightbox. Totally commendable solve for a puzzle that truly didn't deserve you!

Great work as always 😊

i feel like a yellow to purple gradient (or just a wider one in general) would have made this a lot easier. also adding the patterns would make near-duplicate pieces less of an issue

[@relativelypositive]

Happy National Puzzle Day Karen!!! 🥳 I'm glad you did this one and not me, because I don't even have a hairdryer to solve it! False fits are definitely the most frustrating kind of puzzle, it could definitely be possible to produce a more complex puzzle with this color-changing material, but it would not be easy or cheap to make, so it definitely feels like they cut a few corners here.

[@JessCatlessi]

You have way more determination than I do because I would not have finished it. I also wouldn't have blamed you a bit for giving up. I loved watching they hairdryer change the finished puzzle.

This puzzle almost made me mad... until I saw your video ! THANK YOU SO MUCH KAREN ! About 100 pieces were connected and I was blocked when I searched for help. I hair-dried my work and... discovered so many errors. Heat was the key-tip. Did you notice, at last, the shapes on the box (recto&verso) are the actual ones ? Start from the left (the "pink" corners). And drop the 3 columns on the right (côté "orange"): they don't exist, it'a trap. Greetings from France. (By the way, I suscribed your channel) Ce puzzle m'a presque rendu fou... jusqu'à ce que je voie ta vidéo ! MERCI BEAUCOUP KAREN ! Environ 100 pièces étaient connectées et j'étais bloqué lorsque j'ai cherché de l'aide sur Internet. J'ai passé mon travail au sèche-cheveux et... j'ai découvert plein d'erreurs. La chaleur était la clé. As-tu remarqué, à la fin, que les formes sur la boîte (recto&verso) sont les bonnes ? Commencez par la gauche (les coins "roses"). Et laissez tomber les 3 colonnes de droite (côté "orange") : elles n'existent pas, c'est un piège. Salutations de France. (Au passage, je me suis abonné à votre chaîne)

Man, I am so impressed by your patience. I'm not an expert puzzler though I have completed 5000, 6000, and 7500 piece puzzles before. I'm sure i would have thrown this one in the garbage or set it on fire out of pure frustration.....And then maybe thrown a rock through the window of the company that invented it.

[@patmurkland4161]

I was amazed at all the hurdles you overcame to solve this puzzle. Great video and wonderful editing. I was surprised at the hair dryer as a solution but I guess a heat gun would have been too hot and also lacking a diffuser, which ultimately was the game changer. The color change was fun to watch, so thanks for going through all that!

[@peggyp5996]

This was hysterical! Had so much fun watching you do this puzzle! Extra, extra kudos for figuring out the best heat source for the best results! Love your channel!

[@jlilley73]

I definitely wouldn't have finished that! Maybe it would have been doable when it was brand new, but still. I think a much more fun idea would be to have a puzzle with very unique, fun piece shapes that you could solve as a solid-color puzzle. Then when you're done, you could reveal the "secret image" with a hair dryer (this is assuming you could make an image more interesting than a gradient). The bonus to this approach is that you'd be able to use an ordinary hair dryer without the diffusion attachment (who has one of those?) and not worry about the pieces blowing away, because they'd all be attached together at that point!

[@leahbelieva]

Also your editing is always really great but this video especially stood out to me. The more vlog-esque style at the beginning and all of the slow-mo with dramatic music was all great!

[@aleezabeee]

I think it probably would have warmed up with body heat when you initially got it. I think the color changing effect weakened enough that you needed drastic temperature shifts to see an outcome and not just body temperature.

[@maureenlee6526]

Hate the puzzle, love the music! Great entertaining video! I don’t have a diffuser with my hair dryer, and would never attempt such a frustrating thing. But, I’m glad you did and gave us a fun video - I especially liked the hand shadow.

[@okaykid]

it does look like the design they have on the box does match the solve of the puzzle -- if you look at the final solve (~31:34) - rotated so that the top right is the bottom left - and the design, i think they do match! i would definitely lean on that if i didnt have a blow-dryer or light bix handy!

[@Justcallmerita]

I have never watched a video about puzzles with so much excitement and anticipation before.

[@JessicaLovesFoxes]

You are SO PATIENT. I have so much respect for you! This looked so difficult!

[@tommy079]

Karen, the pigment molecules at room temp or colder are at their most stable shape, which reflects the deep blue to purple colors. When these molecules absorb heat energy, their most stable shape changes, and reflects blue or pink. As they cool off, they lose energy and return to their original shape/orientation, which reflects that darker color. Printing on top of the pigment would only affect the color changing molecules underneath the printing, so it is possible.

[@muskyoxes]

But i think, in order to preserve the "countdown timer" nature of the puzzle, the pattern should be visible only in the hot state, not the cold state. Your explanation sounds to me like the pattern would be visible in both states

[@feuilletoniste]

@@muskyoxes They could try to match the pigment of the pattern design to the deep purple of the cooled puzzle - it might be a little bit visible, but it would still be very tricky to solve without heating it up to get some nice colour contrast.

[@tommy079]

@@muskyoxes perhaps an invisible ink can be used to create a pattern. This layer could shield the color changing pigment from some of the heat, so it will change at a slower rate.

[@johanneshalberstadt3663]

As for the technology and a possible design: There are pigments that have a solid color and turn transparent when heated. I don't know, if that's, what they used here, but maybe. The deep purple maybe a layer that is sitting on top of just a regular printed gradient, and that turns transparent to reveal the gradient underneath. With such a technology, it would of course be easy to have any kind of design underneath. But if its one layer and one pigment that makes one color AND another color, it might be more difficult.espescially if you want it to appear one uniform solid color in its unactivated state.

I love this type of color changing pigments! Would have never thought to use it in a puzzle tho 🤭 but accidentally, I am wearing similar thermal color changing nail polish right now! So I am not a scientist, but from what I understand, these types of pigments do tend to settle in their "cold" color after a while. Maybe if you tried to solve it right after you bought it, you wouldn't need a hair dryer to warm up the pieces and they really would change color just from your body heat. But that's just a guess 🤔 what I know for sure is that I would never finish that puzzle, don't have the patience for it! You're a hero for actually solving it 😂

[@snailord5410]

I got this puzzle for Christmas this year and was so frustrated after like six hours of trying to solve it. Thankfully my hands could heat up the pieces just fine but the only parts I solved were parts that had been scratched before the whole thing was cut, so there was a slight pattern to put together. I tried watching some promotional videos to copy the placement of the pieces but even in the advertisements you could see that the pieces were all lumpy and forced into the wrong places. I feel like this could’ve been a great puzzle if they had put even a little variation into the cut! Instead, the pieces were all so similar that you need a backlight and endless trial and error to compare how tightly they fit together. You have amazing determination to get through this whole thing! And I feel a bit better knowing that even a pro puzzler struggled with it 😅

this reminds me of thermal nail polish (which I love, and incidentally am wearing at this exact moment lol), except that thermal nail polish (the ones I own anyway) actually work with just your body heat and you don't need a hair dryer to make it change colour. Highly recommend it, since you seemed to enjoy the colour changing aspect of this puzzle a lot! I'm literally entertained all day when I'm wearing it, especially in winter with all the temperature changes you experience when you go out and come back inside again.

[@iknownothing-49]

You deserve a Congressional Medal of Honor or a Knighthood for doing this puzzle. I am definitely in the ‘regular people giving up’ group. I don’t even own a hairdryer. I could have used my iron, I guess. If I burned it, all the better! I don’t know the science of that paint but since both the orange and the pink cooled to the same dark color, I think they could have put an orange design in the pink and vice versa I’d love to see a video about puzzle piece cuts and what to look out for. Also, why some puzzles show the lines between the pieces and others don’t.

[@girlfromgermany]

When you fetched out that warm water bottle I really had to laugh! 😄 And using the *hair dryer was a great idea! I wish I could answer your question because it was literally my first thought too, to have a design on the puzzle that is revealed with heat. I think that should be possible because there are also these mugs that change color when you fill them with a hot drink. But I don't know how it's done/how it works.

[@AnitramS82]

I‘m so happy that you finished it… because the footage at the end is really beautiful. With changing the colour differently and great music in the background. So well done how you presented the solved puzzle 👍
