    Well this is a project ive been working on some time and is now officially called Mayhems Chameleon.

    In some sense its still in its early testing stages and very much like aurora is a fluid based on mainly looks.

    This is a Thermal reactive coolant that will change colour depending on temps in the water cooling system.

    Some pics below

    First samples will be hitting testers soon.

    A early pre-View vid was posted on YT here



    Before comments about boiling water appear below the water was only 40c and the liquid being tested changed colour at 28 to 31c how ever the ambient temp was 5c at the time. Hence we got steam ... The new version of the liquids the temp change is different and we can do many different colours.

    This is a nano fluid based on 4 different technology's all combined into 1.

    Boiling point 100c
    Viscosity - haha you'll be surprised
    How long will it last - we have not got a clue as of yet but its doing pretty well
    UV active - No , never will be and cannot be used with UV leds.
    ETA - give me a brake
    Cost - Aint got a bloody clue
    Am i mad - yes
    Can i have some for testing - No not yet ...!!!!
    Does it contain inhibitors - yes
    Does it contain biocide - Yes
    Does it contain Glycol - No
    Will it clog a block - we do not know as of yet this is being tested
    Will it work in a impingement block - we do not as of yet

    That looks seriously cool but it seems kinda thick to me? I dunno it's probably not as viscous as it looks like you say in your post but I'd definitely be interested in this.

    this is a really cool idea, easy way to see any hot zones in the system.

    I think you'd need a big loop to show it off best though

    when you loop reaches equilibrium (meaning the water is the same temp though out) your not going to have different coloured sections more over the whole loop will gradually fade from one colour to the next. Because there is a 3c difference from the start of the process to the end say 25c to 27c or 27c to 31c this will take time to change the colour.

    People thought our Aurora would be thick ;) ... they were surprised and the same will happen with this.

    Got to laugh my ass off at this.

    Tester - got the bottles but cannot get the colour to change whats the temp it changes at.

    Me- 25 to 27 c changes from purple to blue

    tester - OH no wonder its blue all ready ...

    ROTFLMAO

    Proof the liquids works but this hot weather is taking its tole ... hahahaha love it.

    What's the red dyed one turn to, pink?

    If this is what I think it is, there's a black dye, tested it?

    Yes red to pink, there is a black one but after mixing it turns gray so you need to be careful.
