Noob DIY question

[sskey89]

Is it possible to build a laser pointer in which the laser can be activated away from the housing? Roughly 6 feet away. Like extending a wire away?

Of course. A wire, wifi, bluetooth, motion detection, IR, whatever any other switch will work off.

You simply make it have that type of switch when you make it....its as hard to turn on as a flashlight or yard light, etc.

Do you mean an electrical wire type switch or a pressure switch as on a firearm?
Either one can be done, it is up to what you want.
Teej mention other great ways also :gj:

Try this. All you need is a wireless doorbell which you can easily get.
