Mechanical Refrigerator Thermostat? Simple? Cheap?

I just Inherited a Peltier refrigerator. OEM control is bad, and I just spent 2 hours in frustration looking for a remote probe totally mechanical thermostat on the web. The gizmo IMO would be useless as a battery powered cooler but with a power supply it might work OK. Clad with 6" of insulation it might do OK with battery.

But a thermostat eludes me except on marine sites where a doorstop costs $199.95 on sale.
