can you use an ac adaptor with this radio?

The radio has a 3 volt "DC In" input jack (looks standard) on it. So the answer is yes, but I have never used it.

Yes, there is a jack for a 5 volt adapter. I'm still lovin' this little radio. During the flooding on the front range of Colorado I was visiting a friend in the area and we were glued to the Degen. Emergency announcements were coming through loud and clear.

yes go to radio shack with you radio they will sell you the correct ac adapter

No adapter is included, but it has a jack for a 5V, 125mA coaxial-plug "wall-wart" adapter. I'm not sure the exact size of the plug, sorry, but it should be possible to find an adapter for it. The documentation doesn't seem to give the plug size, and I can't read the text, which is Chinese.

Not if you use the same radio. If you buy a separate one, it's an additional subscription. You can get a home adapter unless your radio is a built in.

the radio comes with an ac/dc adapter - just plug it in the back. jack is under the rubber cover

yes you can via an auxiliary input on the stereo or with cassette player adapter if the stereo is equipped with a cassette player. The adapter needs a 3.5 mm stereo male connector. This unit does not come with the ac adpater

Yes. However, the instructions state that "The AC charging adapter should only be used to charge the battery pack and should not be used to power the radio on a constant basis. Leaving the charging adapter plugged into the radio for long periods of time will shorten the life of the internal battery pack." It also states that when the battery pack is fully charged the radio should play for over 25 hours. I personally have played my radio on the battery pack it came with for about 6 hours without problems. I don't have an AC adapter. You can also power the radio by installing 3 AA alkaline batteries, including rechargeables. But the radio will not recharge the AA batteries you install. My advice? Buy this radio. You'll love it!

My radio didn't work and I had to return it. Without the adapter it won't work.

The battery charger that came with the radio can be used either for AC power charging or plug in the DC adapter for use in your automobile. The charger can be used in either situation.

Yes it comes with an AC adaptor but you won't need it other than to charge as it has a battery

It does not come with an adapter. That has to be purchased separately. The owners manual says: The radio can also be powered via the DC In socket which can allow 9-14 volts DC, which is designed to be powered by a vehicle or a boat so you can take the radio with you outdoors or on a boat. An additional cigarette lighter cable is required (not supplied) for this device.

No, but you can easily purchase an adapter at any radio shack or electronics store.

It does not come with an AC adapter in the box. Bit you can find one for under $10 on Amazon.

You can use it both with batteries or pluged into a 9v power source. But there's no AC adapter included !!!

Most definitely can be used with a 12v DC supply. Just be certain the supply is capable of delivering adequate power for the radio. Reference the specifications on-line.

The radio can run on AC adapter (not included). Not sure if this will recharge the batteries.

I don't believe you have the adaptor to plug this 18v device directly into your 12v car. You "could" purchase a small voltage converter that puts out 120volt AC voltage, plug that in and then plug the radio into the converter

Looks like you can; the unit itself is marked "AC 100-240V". It has a North American plug (polarized two-prong), though, so you might need an adapter.

no adapter. just a plain plug into the wall. it does not use batteries. the amazon site is wrong about the need for aa size batteries. it can not take batteries. the 110 volt cord is removeable from the radio.
