    If the power cable is not long enough, can it be extended using a USB-C extension cable?

      Yep, that should be fine. Let me know if you run into any issues.

        Just make sure, that the cable is advertised as for „high speed charging“ or sometimes it is advertised as „20W“ (or more) cable. There are very cheap cables that won‘t let enoug power at startup thru. Check in the logfiles for voltage problems. If no voltage problems show up, it is fine. I succesfully run here a 3m cable from ANKER.
