- Core: esp-12-f because this is low power already. (no voltage regulator and usb-to-serial interface that draws current)
- Casing: Google for Waterproof Clear Cover Plastic Electronic Box Project
- Magnetic microswitch: Google for something like 10pcs/lot Wired Door Window Magnetic Sensor Switch
For power I used an old powerbank, those you use to charge your phone. Most power-banks use lithium cells that are a perfect 3.3 volts. And they are easy to charge as well. :)
