Regular Sudoku
Slow-Thermo
(O) Bulbs ≤ Tips ( I )
Digits mustn't decrease along thermometers from bulb to tip.
...Digits may therefore repeat along thermometers.
Flows may merge or diverge, but must always end at a given tip.
In all circumstances, flow must be determined.
Colours are minimally aesthetic and not part of the puzzle.
Off-grid lines are not part of the puzzle, merely distraction.

Thanks for another fun one! Managed 4:11 today. Not sure why these puzzles continue to be underrated! Please keep sharing!

For what it's worth, I don't mind deducing flow! these puzzles are already a lot of notes and process of elimination so it seems like a natural progression of the rules while allowing for cooler art :)

I really dislike the whole "deduce the flow" of the thermos. It just leads to backtracking when you realize that what you thought were the rules lead you to an impasse.
I don't think it makes the puzzle any more interesting.
