Is the music box battery or crank operated?

It's crank operated and last about 10min. I usually put my baby n a crib when he is tired and half-sleep, so it's long enough. My baby loves to stare at those animals even though it's not operating.

Crank operated, but that worked fine with us because we only needed it to be on for couple of minutes at a time. We loved the look and music of this mobile.

It doesn't appear to have a replaceable battery. I've looked the unit over and read the manual and it looks like the crank winding up is it. However my dad bought this exact unit 3 years ago and it still runs great. Mine has only been a few months but I take it to the beach all the time and it's lasted so far

I don't have mine in front of me, but I do believe it's wind-up. If you look at the picture, there are two metal objects on the side. One of them controls the ding a 2, 3, 4, and 6 beats. I'm fairly sure that the other is the wind-up mechanism.

It uses only batteries - but they should last long enough (2 months+) even with daily use. The music stops on its own after sometime.

The unit is battery operated. The one I received did not include a battery.

there is no battery this is a acoustic set not electric and even if it was a electric it still would not have a battery. So I would have to say no......

Not the battery, itself. The docking station has an "audio in" port, but it does not come with an auxiliary cable.

I do not know how to name all the tunes. But it's a nice one. I have been using it for the last one year. It has battery in the outside switch, but I never had to change it. Sam

The part that plays music is a separate piece and on the back of it there's a battery compartment you could open with a screw driver

No battery here. It's all manual. You twist it in a clock and anti clockwise motion.

It's battery operated. But don't worry, it doesn't work with batteries, either.

It's battery or ac powered. Mine only was used about 6 times before it broke.

Actually this unit has a removable end cap with a removable Lithium battery - it uses a Nokia B-5 battery. The JamBox battery is NOT user replaceable and costs about $40 PLUS POSTAGE to send it back to the mfr.

Ugh. I was SO disappointed that this needs batteries. My in-laws have the original they purchased for my husband when he was a little tot and from all descriptions this was the SAME thing. I am skeptical there is a music box inside. My kids love it and they don't know the difference, but I do. It doesn't sound as good and the records just have lines versus the raised dots a music box would use.

The clock and sounds run by battery. The filter and colored light/led lights run via the USB

Perhaps an error in the info. There isn't anything that requires batteries on my music stand.
