Using the X100T with Elgato Smart Power | David Cleland

My first accessory for the X100T comes in the form of the Elgato Smart Power device. In today’s modern, battery powered living we spend a lot of time looking at battery indicators and trying to conserve power, the Elgato Smart Power is a mobile charging solution, (admittedly with iOS and mobile devices owners in mind) that could offer a whole new set of opportunities for the modern photographer. Out of all the enhancements, upgrades and improvements to the Fujifilm X100T I am particularly excited about the introduction of charging over USB and it made perfect sense to partner the Elgato Smart Power with the X100T. Firstly I should explain that the Elgato Smart Power is a lightweight, slimline battery pack that allows the connection of any device that charges over USB. It’s a powerful mobile charger that when fully charged offers 3 complete charges of my iPhone 5C. The Elgato Smart Power sounds simple but it is actually a sophisticated device with a number of bells and whistles that make it special compared to other mobile charging devices. Firstly it really is travel sized, it’s light and doesn’t feel like your carrying a brick in your bag when out and about. The Elgato Smart Power is designed for general USB charging and although isn’t specifically designed for the X100T I have been successfully charging my camera over the last few days……….
