Trigger mechanisms for my Prop 1

I currently have a homemade push button wired trigger (about 25' door bell type wire) connected to Pin6 on my Prop1 and works fine. However, I am confined to a 25' radius of the Prop1. I know that I could use a PIR sensor but I was wondering there was a device available or instructions of using some type of wireless trigger that I could use to trigger when I wanted. I was thinking along the lines of a automobile FOB type device.

Thanks,

Steve

Thanks Jim,

I will take a look at. I found this remote after my post and wondering about this because it looks like it will allow a Momentary. http://www.frightprops.com/controllers-electronics/remote-control/wireless-trigger-2-relay.html

I would think that I would be able to wire this unit as a trigger.

I looked at the manual and the photo at the bottom left hand side of the link that you posted. This wireless key chain remote is able to do momentary triggers and can be easily wired up to the Prop-1 using the N.O. or N.C. on PinX.W and COM PinX.R.
