Random Thermometers

This puzzle started by drawing random thermometers into the grid until there was only one sudoku solution. That resulted in a puzzle that is difficult to solve without looking ahead a bit. You could spend your time guessing, or you could find they key cells and slowly find the only possible solution. If you need a hint, send me a hidden message.

Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits on a thermometer increase from the bulb to the tip.

There is a lot of not quite forcing thermo strings which made this really long. I had to go through lots of long paths to eliminate pencil marks. Definitely interesting, tough to grade this, it's somewhere between a 3*-5*, given that the logic isn't tricky it is more an exercise
