AB  - A productive and novel method for fabricating stretchable transparent heaters 
      with recognised thermochromic properties using commercially available 
      thermochromic ink (TM-55-blue) and silver nanowire (AgNW)-coated 
      polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is proposed. Lower resistance, elevated heat 
      generation, and higher transparencies were the expected essential prerequisites 
      for the fabrication of items such as smart windows and window defrosters. 
      AgNW-coated PDMS (hereafter PH devices) satisfied the essential prerequisites but 
      did not produce sufficient color change. In addition to the appreciable 
      electrical and optical characteristics and mechanical robustness, observable 
      color changes represent a critical factor in effortless temperature monitoring by 
      the heating device. Blending TM-55-blue thermochromic ink with PDMS (PBH device) 
      improves the heating rate and color transformation and promotes the ultralow 
      response time appreciably. More notably, it produces a visible transformation 
      from blue to colorless. Color changes visible to the naked eye, ultralow response 
      time, and heating rate represent valuable features for deploying the PBH devices 
      as window defrosters and in smart window applications.
