Even More Tightly Packed

(Published on 10. January 2023, 15:03 by Cane_Puzzles)

Can a puzzle with thermometers and renban lines no longer than 3 cells and an empty perimeter have a unique solution? Follow-up puzzle to my "Tightly Packed"

Rules:

1) Normal Sudoku rules apply:
Place the digits 1-9 into each cell of the grid. None of the rows, columns or boldly outlined 3x3 boxes contain repeated digits.

2) Thermo Sudoku rules apply:
Digits increase along thermometer shapes, starting from the bulb end.

3) Renban Sudoku rules apply:
Each purple line contains a set of distinct consecutive digits in any order.

This is the puzzle:

Solution code: Row 8 followed by Row 9 (18 digits without spaces)
