What type of batteries and how many does it use? Will it work if plugged in to a power source?

4 double A rechargeable. They came with my used one. The charging cord is a usb like a cell phone. Im sure you can buy a different one. As long as you want to listen to it plugged up you can but it will NOT change while you listen to it. Have to do one or the other

3 AA batteries. It comes with an AC power adapter/charger and it will work with the adapter/charger providing the power, thereby saving the batteries. However, it will not charge unless the scanner is turned off. It's best to use rechargeable batteries, and to buy an extra set and a separate battery charger. That way, when the batteries get low, you can swap them out and charge the ones that had been in the scanner.

It uses two triple A batteries, I see no reason why rechargeable AAA batteries wouldn't work. My unit seems to 'leak' electricity in that the batteries run down even when the unit is off. I 'fixed' this by taping a bit of plastic at the entrance to the battery door which I slide over the contact on one battery when it isn't in use, the batteries now last a long time.

I don't use the batteries for power , I just bought the power cord to use 110 volt house power.It's not very expensive and a lot cheaper than keep changing batteries

This does not have a rechargeable battery. It's needs to be plugged in to a power outlet for it to work.

Yes, you can purchase recharging batteries that will work. I bought Energizer Recharge Power Plus from Lowes Hardware and they do work. Regular batteries (non-rechargeable) do not work!

It uses 8 X AAA batteries. Any AAA-type, including rechargeables, should work.

Plugs in and takes batteries. I guess you could use rechargeable batteries, but unit will not charge them.

It uses 4 batteries. I've been using mine for 2 months and the batteries are still going strong. You may only have to replace them twice a year.

The only power source I found on the one I bought (and subsequently returned) was AA batteries. I could never get mine to work, so it went back to the provider.

It uses 2- 3.7 volt rechargeable Batteries. My best luck was to take light to Radio Shack and make sure they fit .

It requires a power source. You can use a BEC, or a (4) cell NiMH or NiCad battery (4.8v-6v)

AA batteries and it uses 6 or 8 batteries. I dont exactly recall but i think 6

it runs on 12v, so any 12v source will work. I'm using a battery pack for a project with a switch on the positive side.

It requires 12volts DC. Doesn't matter what size the battery is. It's the voltage that counts.
