Indoor cam power extension lead?
hardwired-security-cameras

Hi All With the indoor cam power cable being on the short side, i was just wondering if anyone had tried powering one of these with an alternate usb charger maybe an apple one (the bigger ones) with a longer micro usb cable to give a bit more length. I dont have one to try with so was just curious to know, I had a look at the charger ratings on the ring cam and an apple charger and they seem to be pretty much the same? Thanks

    I've used longer ones and others have too. But I use a standard USB micro cord. Nothing with apple though. You can find them one Amazon and they don't cost much.

      One from my many Android phones I have laying around. Bought a long cable and just used a plug I had in my drawer. They don't need much power. A basic plug should work fine.
