GFI Tripped Circuit Detection & Notification System

I have a freezer and refrigerator on the same GFI circuit in my garage. Several months ago when my wife and I were away from home for 2 weeks, we came home to find that the GFI had tripped; several hundred dollars worth of food was spoiled. I invented a device (patent pending) which will instantly notify me when that GFI circuit trips; I could be anywhere in the world. It works with OOMA's security system using all of the established notifications (phone call, email, SMS, local). I have a working prototype which has performed beautifully.
(If tripped, I can call my handyman to try to reset it or plug the freezer and refrigerator into live outlets in my house until I get home). I have written to OOMA about this possible new product many times, but there has never been a response. I would appreciate any feedback. What do you think about it?
