Slow-Thermo Sudoku
(O) Bulbs ≤ Tips ( I )
Digits must never decrease along thermometers from bulb to tip.
...Digits may therefore repeat along thermometers.
Flows along thermometers always end at a given tip.
Colours are not part of the puzzle.
Off-grid lines are not part of the puzzle.

P.S. I should bring to your attention that the display puzzle and the link have one difference in row 7. It is inconsequential to the puzzle solve. Penpa has recently changed how thermo tips interact (r1c7) and I cannot remake the image as I'd like. I love Swaroop for his work on Penpa and I am hugely grateful for where he has taken it, but I'll need to have a polite word at some point. :-)
