%e a(3) = 83 because 2^83 (= 9671406556917033397649408) is the smallest power of 2 to contain a run of exactly 3 consecutive threes in its decimal form.

%t a = ""; Do[ a = StringJoin[a, "3"]; b = StringJoin[a, "3"]; k = 1; While[ StringPosition[ ToString[2^k], a] == {} || StringPosition[ ToString[2^k], b] != {}, k++ ]; Print[k], {n, 1, 9} ]
