will this work without electicty

Hello, We believe that the MRHF270320 will not operate WITHOUT electric power. The AC powers the on/off switch, but once ignited the electricity "pull" is minimal if not nothing at all. It would be best to view at the operating manual for the unit.

Absolutely NOT. It needs (by code) to be hardwired to a direct power source. That's the whole purpose- when the power goes out, the emergency lights come on. You can wire it to the power BEFORE it enters the light switch, but not after (controlled by) the light switch.

Yes. You just have to keep it charged. Make sure wherever you are you have any necessary converters.

Yes, if you plug it into a voltage converter. I think there is one on Amazon for $13 or so. I would not try it without the voltage converter.

no, for that you need a power/voltage converter. this is just a plug adapter.

No, it needs 110 v power all the time, add an electrical socket nearby........

Works fine without electric I am very satisfied with the three units I put in.

Not necessary. It has an "Auto-off" feature, so you can leave it plugged in.

No, it would require a voltage adapter. Or a separate power supply. The unit is able to accept either 18v dc 800ma or 110v ac, but does not come with the dc power supply.

Yes. It runs on either 12 or 110 V. You connect both and if 110 is available, it will use it as a priority. If you will never have 110 available, then just connect it to 12V.

Yes. cannot introduce ac, hiss, hum etc because it is a non- powered passive unit.

I don't think so. It works off of electricity and there's no manual switch available.
1727498
Yes, as long as you don't have something else high powered plugged in on the same circuit.

Short answer, yes. Just wire it up like how you would a light bulb; make sure to add a resistor, this thing only take 12volts DC only.

Not required, even if hooked up to a generator instead of city/county power. My refrigerator and freezer work fine as well as some battery chargers I had running off the dirty output of a poorly regulating generator but the UPS kept flickering on and off so I had to unplug it.

Yes, it will work fine. I'm using mine right now without the battery. My battery is bad (3 yrs. old) and the unit will lock up with the battery installed so I removed it.

Look on their website I have the non electric one. I'd guess it would work but you never know.
