    Another solution that is better suited for a variety fo types of power failure is to plug a UPS with USB monitoring into the same outlet as your freezer0. Plug the USB into an RPi, and run Network UPS Tools on it.

I set it up inside SmartThings to provide details, and SmartThings can notify me when it gets tripped due to a power failure. It wouldn’t be hard to push an event to an MQTT instance if you have one setup, and there’s likely a plugin for Home Assistant (I believe there is one for Home Bridge as well).
