Increasing the length of the cable increases the charging circuit impedance and decreases the charging rate.
[...]
Cables longer than 6 feet is not suggested regardless of lower AWG as the connectors itself (especially at the MicroUSB end) will be the bulk of the impedance for that cable.
I notice that the Monoprice 28/24AWG cables come in various lengths -- 1.5, 3, 6, 10 and 15 feet.
If the bulk of the impedence is from the connectors, what about using a single longer cable instead of an extension? Would a single 10ft or 15ft cable also not be recommended?
Conversely, would the 1.5ft cable charge significantly faster than the 6ft one?
