Can this clock just run on batteries?

I know that it is electric let me look over at my parent's, to see if it can be run both ways.

No it does not run on batteries. It has to be connected to an ipod cord or dock.

It can run on just batteries. It actually last a lot longer that I anticipated. This is one of the best investments I have made in the caregiving of my elderly father. I know most people use it for babies but it definitely works well in any caregiving situation!

This model needs to be plugged in. The clock itself is heavy duty enough where I wouldn't see batteries lasting very long if they were an option.

No, it does not run on batteries. Plus the sound is so quiet you can not hear it, when you have music or a movie playing.

Most likely. I never heard of one with clock battery backup. If it doesn't have a remote sensor, nor an AC adapter, it's only using elec for the clock, so you're probably not going to save much elec with it controlled.

I don't see why not. You set the clock based the tide schedule in your area or the area that you want to track. Clock works great, but you do need to change batteries every year so it stays on time.

The clock is powered by 120V and also has battery backup in case of a power outage. I actually use it inside of a coke machine to turn the exterior lights on and off so I'm not paying for the lights to be on all day. It should work fine for your outlet as it handles 120V in and out. Just Ohm out the wire that goes to your outlet and hook it to the power out wire on the timer. I haven't had an issue with it yet, but I had a friend that got a couple of duds before he finally got a good one. Worth the money though!

There might be a way if you are a electrical prodigy- but I don't know how. It runs on batteries.

this runs all the time it has a clock in it. If you turn this on and set in down and let it just set there running 6 to 7 hours. I replace my batteries about every 2 to 3 weeks.

nope, it is just a simple analog clock. unplug it and the clock does not retain any memory. all in all though, this thing does a good job, we use the timer, 5am - 9am on 5pm - 9pm on, rest of time in off position.

Yes you can set it like that. I think for a battery operated timer it is the best on the market. Enjoy.

no. Only how many hours, on. There is no clock. It is a misnomer to call it programmable, in my opinion. It should be called a timer.

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

I don't remember how to set the clock, just that I found it very easy. For the batteries, especially cheap ones, I found that even in locked position, they tend to drain if I don't use it for a long time (a week or more). So, I took the habit of removing the batteries when I don't plan to use it regularly (whici is the case theses days), f only to prevent acid leak, which happens often with cheap batteries. Otherwise, I easily have 20+ hours of listening with cheap batteries when I use it regularly.

I don't think so. It has a battery backup to keep the clock going. But I don't think it will work without being plugged in.

Mine run on batteries only. It did not come with a "plug in" nor does it have a place for a plug.
