Does this Calculator run all the functions on batteries? If I wanted to take this to a Farmers Market I could use it strictly on battery power?

Yes. The calculator is fully functional on battery power. I don't know how long the batteries will last since I haven't had to replace them yet. It is just a pleasure not to have to be concerned with hooking upo AC, even when I am just using it at my desk.

I have not installed the batteries, but it takes 4 AA batteries so I would assume that it would work in battery mode.

I bought this one year ago and is running with the same batteries and let me tell you that I always forget to turn it off.... I do not think you will have any problem to use all available features.

Bob, as I remember, it operates on batteries only. If I were you, I would consider another unit. I had a ton of problems with the one I purchased. It was new from the factory and had a lot of electronic problems.

I think youre asking if this takes batteries? It does, but you should use a power plug if you can.

This calculator uses a Two Way Power system that combines a solar cell with a G13 type button battery (LR44). Normally, calculators equipped with a solar cell alone can operate only when bright light is present. The Two Way Power system lets you continue to use the calculator as long as there is enough light to read the display. Note that you will not be able to use the calculator if its button battery is dead. Even if the calculator is operating normally, replace the battery at least once every three years.

No, it isn't run on battery. You simply plug it in and connect it to your tv. Use the remote that comes with it. The screen size is whatever your TV's screen is.

Yes it runs with battery and the unit can be taken to Battery's plus and they will change it for you!!!!

Yes, it does work on battery power. I just installed four of these in my house and turned off the circuit breaker, to have them work on battery only. Tested one & they all went off as they are suppose too.

No, it is not designed to run off of batteries, and there is no battery compartment, etc. Yes, it could run off of batteries provided you have some more advanced electrical knowledge or know someone with some-it runs off of dc electrical power, the same type of power your Duracells give you. But, it is a bit complicated. You would need to "construct" a battery pack for it in the sense that you need to come up with the rated power input from some battery/combination of batteries-it is 12v 3000mA DC input (at least that is what the supplied transformer outputs to the unit)-you would probably want to use a 12v battery of some kind (or for the size you want you might get 12v out of a combination of smaller voltage batteries in series) and then probably wire up to the dc input connector or take the back off and directly wire (i.e. solder) some battery leads to the inputs on the pcb. A laptop battery might work for this application. This would of course void your warranty.

Hello and Happy New year! Unfortunately it will not operate with batteries. Only electrical outlet. I hope this helps. Best.

I never run it on batteries, mine is plugged in at all times. The supplied power supply is 5 Volts at 100 mili-Amps. I suppose you could power it from a USB power supply provided you could connect with the correct connector.

It works on 120 volt A/C power without a battery. I understand you can add a battery as backup in case of power loss but I have not done so with mine. My unit has been in operation since August '13 without any problems, operating an 11-1/2 foot chain link gate. I love not having to rely on battery power.

Hi, Barry, there is no battery! It's all run on light by solar power. It's a great calculator. I've had it for over a year now (I think) and it's fantastic! No issues with it at all. I love the big keys, it helps me to be able to do those simple calculations easily. Enjoy!

Yes! It runs directly in panel , no battery, I use it in my farms but I have fixed a 250 watt panel!

Christine, my TI-36X Pro relies entirely on solar power and does not need or include batteries. Mine has always performed flawlessly on solar power and has never given me any trouble. I would heartily recommend the calculator. Hope this helps!

No, it doesnt run on batteries. I will work only when connected to an outlet.

No it runs if gas cylinder, like butane. It has an igniter like a gas grille. So no batteries. Work great

It runs on either 12v power or 4 C batteries. I keep batteries in it but when you plug it in it uses 12v power
