No. The cable in that mounting kit is a power-only cable. You need a standard microSD **data** cable.

A longer data cable is one of the Lamp Socket enhancements listed in the [Lamp Socket Enhancements](https://forums.wyze.com/t/lamp-socket-enhancements/205711) wishlist topic. Some here are running this example, but some Amazon reviewers claim poor performance when connected to a v3:

I’ve been using that cable since I got the lamp socket, so 3ish months or so now? Works flawlessly.

I’ve been running these data cables with no problems:
