@puckingaround11 !Wyze is thinking about a long extension option. See this post.
For those hoping for this, Wyze announced some good news in their AMA today:
So it sounds like something is coming soon! They didn’t say any other details though, just that it is long and an extension cable just as was asked for here and they used the word soon. I just wanted to pass on the good news for those following this thread.
These are available in endless variations. It is a Male\Female USB-A Power Extension Cable as posted above. My Amazon search resulted in over 10,000 listings.
You don’t need, nor want, an L-shaped connector. The connector supplied is part of the waterproofing system, so please don’t replace it.
You just need a commonly-available USB-Type-A-Female to USB-Type-A-Male cable. I’d try to limit that cable length to no more than 20 feet to avoid dropping the voltage to the camera too far.

But running a 120V extension cord is even better, if that cord is protected from the elements (no voltage drop).
