Get an old toaster, and grab the bi-metal strip out of that. Of course, that might be asking you to heat up your device too much - not sure if you are allowed to use that much electrical power. Set it up at the beginning, and have it auto shut off after it trips. That should let it cool off enough for the next round.

Heck... can you just USE a toaster?
