does it need batteries or a light bulb of some kind

No, it has an electrical cord and the lights are suppose to last quite awhile. I think instructions told how to order new bulbs but they were to last years.

Plugs into the wall, hundreds of thousands of hours on the led lights. This thing is self contained and awesome for the price.

Neither. When the batteries are placed inside, the lights go on. Then after awhile, they will turn off. When you put the light in a dark place, they are supposed to activate, but it fails to do that. It does not turn on in either the day or the night.

No, it does not need a battery. I did not put a battery in mine and it worked fine.

I see no way to put batteries in, but the lights are fading. I have had it for a couple of months

The only batteries you may need are if the power goes out and you want to shine a flashlight behind the opaque plastic back to see your slides. Otherwise, it does not require batteries as it works with natural and electric backlighting.

It came with batteries. I simply turned it on when we recieved it. They havent gone out yet so im not sure what kind of batteries it takes

No, the battery is just a little one for the transmitter. If there was a light I doubt it would last long.

Yes, it needs batteries. Also I got mine for $7 on Black Friday ($10 price less 305 discount for in-store shoppers)

Mine doesn't use batteries at all. No moving or lighted parts. Strange that they'd even mention them. *shrug*

It does not have a light, this is one of the reason I purchased this particular model.

No it doesn't have any lights but there is a place to attach either a small LED battery powered light or a small corded light.

There are no batteries necessary. The unit is powered by a transformer that plugs into a standard wall socket.

The product I have does not require any batteries, maybe if there is one to purchase with a 'light' added it may need batteries, however the stand alone needs none!

No, the light uses no batteries. It works on 110 V AC, or the same as the lighting in your home.

I have one of these. It is an LED with no bulb. The batteries that come with it do not last long. You will need to get hearing aid batteries as replacement.

No batteries needed. It's solar powered. Where there is light. You can use it :-) God bless you :-)

We bought it because it did not have a light. I would contact the manufacturer.
