Do you mean an outdoor charger? Or just the cable?

What length are you looking for?

just the cable, I have the plug (indoor) and around 6,8 feet would be good thanks!

Camera is indoors or out? Outdoors needs to be able to weatherproof the connection like the Arlo outdoor adapter.

Assuming indoor use, any 6 foot USB-C cable will work for the Gen 2 Essential models. Since it is only for power, USB 2.0 is fine.

Of course get USB-C to USB-A if the charger only accepts USB-A.
