Turns out it wasn’t needed as the exposure times required by this camera allowed the use of the internal battery, and a couple of spares.
Third Party AC Adapter for Fujifilm XT-1. Power Lead removed for clarity |
I have to report though that upon testing it, it didn't work properly. Although the the box that emulates the battery looks to be the perfect size, it's not and as a result doesn’t make proper contact with the camera.
I fixed this simply with two small pieces of electrical tape placed in the corner where the battery door catch contacts the battery. After this it seems to work just fine.

On a tripod in a studio is a situation you may need one of these. If this problem happens to you, it's a simple fix.
Remember any kind of AC Adapter for the XT-1 will require that the battery door is left open so the cable can pass out, just make sure that this will work in your situation.
