I have a foot between the placement of my camera and the outlet. Is there a way to reduce the amount of excess cord?

Hi there, Ryan.

Sorry for my late response. Thank you for all of your patience while waiting for a reply. I just wanted to make sure that your issue is addressed. No there is only the one size cord you can purchase additional cords, but we do not have a shorter corde. Please let me know if you need further assistance.

The fact that Google does not provide options for shorter power cords for the camera is very unfortunate. Having such a long cord is not aesthetically pleasing in many situations. Google should consider offering their customers some additional options.

I too would greatly appreciate a shorter cord for my outdoor camera. I have 25 feet in a space where I need 6 inches. Google really needs to consider this option, so many have ask even outside of this forum.

Does anyone make a third party solution? I have the same issue. I wanted to mount the camera on our near a soffit that has an outlet very close to it.

Since my camera and outlet will both be outside, what do I do with all this extra cable? Tape won’t hold in cold or wet weather, plus it will look like crap. Any ideas folks? Thanks
