I thank all testers and wish you joyful solving!
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply, i.e. each row, column, and 3x3 region has to contain the digits from 1 to 9 once each.
- Bulb-gravitating Thermos: Digits along a thermometer must strictly increase from the bulb end. Moreover, each thermometer is split in two parts by a red cut. The digits on the bulb part must sum to strictly more than the digits on the tip part.
Here you can solve the puzzle online:
Solution code: Column 9 from top to bottom (9 digits in total)

The number of times I said to myself in Simon's voice, "I must apologize for that dreadful pencil mark..."
The temptation to liffe it was far too great towards the end!

Thank you for your comment, GB03! I am glad to hear you gave in to the temptation and liffed up to the task. :)

Incredible title. 10/10, no notes (the puzzle's good, too <3)
**
Thank you, ViKingPrime! Your comment just made me smile. This was a case where, once I thought of the title, I had to set a puzzle for it. Somehow "liffing" made thermos come to mind. :) I am glad that you liked it.

Für den hübschen Einstieg war zu meiner Überraschung gar kein Goodliffing nötig! (Später schon…) Vielen Dank für das tolle Puzzle.

Sehr gern geschehen, Franjo, vielen Dank für deinen Kommentar! Es freut mich, dass Dir der Einstieg gefallen hat. Ich hoffe, das Goodliffing später war nicht zu schlimm. :)
Herzliche Grüße, sujoyku
