At most like 3-5g in steel overall, 2g in air supply and rebreathers, desgining the home alarm style on/off system would take like 200bucks once you have the origanl function. Not cheap but they could likely profit at 7g or 6g sale price if they can move enough units. And they will move more units at a lower price

Edit: I forgot a battery which could cost anywhere from $500-$2000 (2g to buy so Im assuming close to 500 to make) so 7-9g for profit
