Hi all,

Question about extending this cable to connect the first light to the vdm module. The longest I can find this cable is 6'. I ran across a cable that I think I can use to extend it but I'm worried about a volt drop or any communication issues for that matter. Any one have any feedback on this?

Thanks!
 
I have tried 25 feet extention cable and it was OK for me. However my cable is a lot thicker than the one you show in your picture
