Solar panel cable extension?

[sakebma2]

I’ve got 2nd Gen outdoor essentials cameras and have recent purchased the solar panel. I need about another 1 or 2 meters to get the panel into a sunny spot, is there any cable extension available?

No guarantees that this will work but try a search for "micro usb male to micro usb female cable"

No, second-gen essentials use usb-c, not micro usb.

You could look for a usb-c extension cable. 

One challenge here is that there is loss in the cable, so there might not be enough power left to charge the camera.  Another is weather - generally these extensions are not outdoor rated.
