To help wade through all the mess I found on Amazon.

I am looking for some apparatus where I can monitor the temperature in different areas of my house. Just putting some thermometers in the rooms will not really help me achieve my goal as I can't check them every hour.
I want something that will either record the data all day long or send me updates through out the day. This information is vital to determining where I'll ferment my next batch o beer.

properly lager. On National Championship Eve, we brewed a beer with yeast that would die off at like 72 degrees. Set the heat to kick on at 62 and AC to kick on at 67. Luckily we had mostly low temps for a while. Worked out well. RH and Shorty and I don't know who all else had some of that beer.

You can easily keep a 5 gallon batch in the 50's

by getting a plastic tote and surrounding the carboy/bucket with water and adding ice periodically. I just did it for a pilsner. You won't be able to properly lager it in the secondary though as this method is not viable for temps below 50.

Search USB temperature data logger on ebay.
Many available in the US for $13.
You do have to plug some of these into a laptop to read the data.

Simply no room for a second full fridge in the house. If my plan to finish out the shed ever happens, that would be the place for a second fridge.
