Not possible with my latest freezer, it beeps if you do that.


I'm beginning to suspect that some of my freezer problems are a
result of the door being left open (see some posts from some months
back)


After my door open accident I bought a digital thermometer with an alarm -
also make sure the freezer's operating within range (-18-22C).


What did you get and is it reliable?


Lidl, reference 270128. Seems reliable, but the menu isn't that intuitive and
takes a bit of stabbing to check the min/max temperatures of the past 24
hours, and programming the alarm (which IIRC only kicks in around 0C - I'd
rather it was say -10C). If I was buying again I'd look into that.
