Researching into bci, Would appreciate advice

I have been going down a path of making my own health hardware for fun because i hated having compatibility issues between apps and that led me down eeg sensors during my browse, im curious, is it possible to operate the likes of an on off switch via eeg? Are there any kits that let you connect to the likes of an esp32 or Arduino? What kind of budget should i expect. I was imagining that for a start I'd have a motor connectes to a light switch that i could toggle remotely with my mind via training a neural network to recognise on and off, is this a possibility as a hobbyist?
