Does anyone know if you can get some sort of doohickey you can leave in
the freezer which will sound an alarm if the temperature rises ? I know
cold kills batteries, so have no idea how it could work.

Aside from the technical answers, I had this problem with my fridge
freezer in the UK. When I moved here I read the instructions (shock!)
with my new one which said to jack the front feet up a little so the
doors self close. Simple. But you may have done this already.
