Hello everyone, I'm new here!
First off, a big thank you to the forum admin for putting together such a useful resource.
On the topic of worries about freezer defrost cycles, I thought I'd share some information. I store a few vials of GLOW inside a thermos flask along with a desiccant sachet, and that flask sits in a modern UK freezer that runs a cycle roughly three times per day. The swings in temperature are minimal — the data logger is placed inside the flask. The chart below covers only 2-3 days, but a full week of readings looks much the same. This is an ordinary freezer rather than a dedicated one, so it gets opened often as well. Just sharing in case it's of interest, thanks!
