Does this have a battery backup in case the power goes out?

No it doesn't. But there is a capacitor that can retain the clock for several minutes. Smarter: no battery to change.

Yes there is a battery backup. You do not lose the program, however the sprinkler will not work without power.

No battery backup. Be sure and have a cellphone as a backup for power outages, Regular phones normally work with power outages, these don't.

I run this from the outlet, and it's been exceptionally reliant. There's a back-up battery for emergency power outage.

Yes. Word of warning...if the power goes out, you will need to reset the timer. Also, this product lasted about one year and died on me. Did not replace with another. Went to Lowes and bought one that is digital and has battery backup ($25) seems to work great, but time will tell

It has a battery inside that will keep the memory intact if the power goes out. It doesn't have an operational battery backup, meaning employees cannot clock in and out when the power is out. We have ours hooked up to an APC UPS battery unit. Honestly, even if Icon offered a battery, it'd probably be just as much (or more) than an APC.

No it does not. Ac power plug only and batteries for backup in cast of a power failure. I believe the battery backup is good for about 8 hours. We are very please with this product. As I said before, it is a little tough to get the timer set right ( of course I am pretty dumb when it comes to these things ) but once it is working, you will almost forget about it.

Hi Mike, unfortunately there is not a battery backup as the solar panel is matched in charging size to a single battery.

Hi Douglas. This does not have a battery backup but it has six (6) isolated filters to provide clean and clear power to all of you components.

This serves as a battery backup in case the electricity goes out. It is not used as a battery by itself. It is like any UPS Battery Backup-only for emergencies. It will not last long. Besides how will you recharge it if there is no electricity.

No. A battery backup is less necessary than most people think and unless you live in an area with frequent/rolling blackouts I'd just get one of these and spare your wallet.

it has battery backup in case the power goes out, but it does plugs in to a wall outlet' I love this clock because I can set 2 separate alarms for weekdays and weekends!!

It does include a backup override key. It also includes a power override battery box to provide backup battery power, from outside of the safe.

It stores the settings in non-volatile memory, which is not lost if the power goes out. So it doesn't need a battery backup.

For Backup in case power is lost. But, I wouldn't buy it--it doesn't work well

Yes, it does have a battery backup. It works great, as i've turned the circuit off several times during our remodel and no power loss to the timer. All the times and programs remain correct.

NO. I have it plugged into my computer battery back up so I can use it when the power goes out.
