When coloring in puzzles, I always use orange for even and green for odd numbers, so with this one I was more confused than I should have been, haha. But the puzzle itself was great!

Great! At first I couldn't find a starting point but it turned out to be a smooth solve. Unique ruleset!

Can digits repeat along a thermometer (eg two 5’s on a blue thermometer)?
- Yes, odd digits on an even thermometer can repeat, as they aren't counted, if allowed by other rules. (And vice versa.) - Sotehr
