i dont even know if such a thing exists, but the stock commander cable is too short for my car - anyone know if an extension cable can be purchased?

Can be bought (part numbers in link), but...

Are there any cool tricks with the PowerFC? Free mods etc?
A handy trick PowerFC owners use when they take car in for a service/work to be done they set the rev limit to 3000rpm and remove the hand controller. .This prevents the workshop from taking your car out for a fang on the roads and driving it like they've stolen it as the PowerFC will cut the power at the 3000rpm rev limit interrupting the joy experienced by the joy rider of your precious car. This would be useful at panel beaters, car cleaners, stereo installers etc. This would not suitable for a performance workshop cos if they are tuning your car or fixing a problem they may need to actually rev it out so use this wisely. Another unofficial mod is instead of buying the official PowerFC hand controller extension cord is to use a normal Ps2 extension cord used for a normal PC computer. Its the same cable you just need to break off one of the pins.

Andy Apexi charge $60 for one, I did the PS2 cable trick too. Just make sure you confirm on which pin to snap... My $6 cable became a $12 cable because I had to buy a second one when I pulled the wrong pin out.
