Very considerate of you regarding solution code. It really eases the job of those who solve on mobile devices. Hope those who still ask for 18 digits will wake up to this.

Thank you for this fun slow thermo puzzle, NotsoHard! I already took a go at it yesterday, but kept on breaking. Although I told myself several times that slow thermos are less restricted than normal thermos, my brain seemed to be unwilling to accept that fact. :) Today, I quickly found my oversight and it all flowed very nicely. Thank you for setting and sharing!
