Smart Freezer Monitor?

Hey all,

I want to get a simple device to monitor my freezer's temp. Our circuits have been known to trip occasionally and I would be quite upset if I lost the $$$'s of dollars of meat in there (1/4 cow plus other). I know there are some basic wireless devices like this one which would probably work fine. However, I would like to have notification ability away from home. The best I could do with that is point a webcam at the screen so I could check in. But I still wouldn't get notified - I would have to check in. Its not uncommon for us to be away from our house for longs weekends or even a week here and there. I would love something with an App and/or ifttt.com support. I don't have any existing Home Automation stuff - so it would need to operate stand alone (think Belkin line of products). Another option would be anything Homekit since we use iPhones/iPad but I don't believe I have seen anything to date announced for homekit like this. Google has only shown me the above wireless type ones or insteon/x11/etc. Anyone know of anything cool? Thanks!
