F1TP NP-FZ100 Dummy Battery AC Power Adapter Kit - Continuous Power

In this review the F1TP NP-FZ100 dummy battery AC power adapter kit is evaluated for photographers and videographers who need reliable mains power for extended shoots. The bottom line: this kit is a practical, budget-friendly solution to replace frequent battery swaps when using Sony cameras that accept the NP-FZ100 form factor, providing continuous power from a standard outlet and a long 10ft/300cm coupler cable so the camera can remain mounted during sessions.

Key Features

• Broad compatibility: Works as a replacement for Sony NP-FZ100 batteries across a long list of Alpha and FX series bodies so users can power many current models without switching battery types.
• Continuous AC power: Supplies uninterrupted power from 100-240VAC input to the camera, eliminating downtime for long studio shoots, tethered downloads, or live monitoring sessions.
• Stable output: The adapter provides an 8V 3A 24W output which is appropriate for cameras that accept the NP-FZ100 form factor and keeps performance steady under load.
• Long coupler cable: The included 10ft/300cm AC/DC coupler cable offers generous reach for studio setups and mounting flexibility without stressing connections.
• Safety protections: Constructed from ABS and PC with a high-quality chip and protections for overcharge, temperature, overcurrent, short circuit, overvoltage and lightning, improving reliability in regular use.
• Included kit parts: Ships with the NP-FZ100 dummy battery, power supply adapter and a US plug AC cord plus a 365-day warranty and 30-day refund window for buyer confidence.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at photographers, content creators, and studio shooters who regularly use Sony bodies that accept the NP-FZ100 replacement and need mains power for extended recording, live view, tethered workflows or time-lapse work. It is especially useful in a controlled studio or home rig where mobility is less important than continuous operation.

It is less suited to users who need weather-sealed, portable power for field work where running to an AC outlet is impractical; those users should stick with factory batteries or portable power solutions designed for outdoor use. Also, camera owners unsure about their model compatibility should verify the NP-FZ100 form factor before buying.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Provides continuous mains power to avoid battery swaps during long shoots or monitoring sessions.
• Wide compatibility with Sony Alpha and FX series cameras that use NP-FZ100 batteries.
• Built-in safety protections and solid ABS/PC construction for dependable everyday use.

Cons

• Not a portable solution for field shoots since it relies on AC power and a US plug is included by default.
