Thermo Killer Dot
(Published on 10. January 2024, 17:01 by PDN777)
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits on a thermometer must strictly increase from the bulb end. Digits in a cage must sum to the little number in the upper left, and may not repeat in the cage. Neighboring digits marked with a white Kropki dot are consecutive. Not all dots are given. I think this puzzle is 1.5 stars out of 5 for difficulty for many solvers. As always, comments welcome. Thanks!

Loved it. Messed it up the 1st time through, no obvious reason. Restarted the next day and breezed through it. Really good setting.

Thanks for sharing. I found it a bit easier than 1.5*, but still a fun run
