Why not? It works as an alarm, is simple in design and requires no external input.
They need to be checked 3x per day anyway for temperature so someone will notice eventually. And checking temperature must be product core temp so no remote monitoring. Unless haccp changed massively over the last 20 years to "we don't care anymore".
This is remote management, not just monitoring. Say you want your fridges to integrate with weather predictions, or prepare for a change of stock in a specific freezer across 100 sites. Features are appealing, but hopefully LLMs can make these cowboys finally secure implementations that they have never been forced to before.
How do you measure core temperature of, say, a block of frozen fish without destroying the packaging and contaminating the good? Do they throw it away after measurements?
