One that looks pretty promising is the "5G blocker" market. There already are some that are basically a USB powered LED in a housing to make it look like a flash drive.
You can differentiate your "product" by giving it a Tacticool look and/or name. Slap a plastic housing on that with an urban camo print and call it "The 5G Afflictor" or something, and you can probably get some money from some morons.
If you use careful wording, you can keep it totally factual, too. It may not block 5G signals, but everyone that buys one does suffer no further ill effects from 5G, for example.
