yes. The first one I got never powered on so it was replaced. The second on only lasted 2 months then went out. I unplugged it and that did not work. It is completely shot now.

yes, it is electric. the water goes into a tray for the cooling setting, but the instructions do not tell you or show you how to drain the tray. I need to email their customer service to get that answered.

Plug it in and you can manually set it up from the Air Cooler itself or use the remote that comes with it to select what you want it to do....remember you must select 'cool' when operating, it will bring the cool water from the tank into the system to blow out cool air, put some ice in the water to make the water a little more cooler. If you don't select 'cool' on the Air Cooler, you may damagethe cooler. It's a good item, I have two of them and may get a third one this year. Remember also, it will only cool the area around you like a small bedroom, it will not cool a big living room or any room of that size, I'm sure you'll like it.

Well everything electronic runs on electricity, but I think you are asking whether or not it is portable. The answer to that question is yes, and it is battery powered

Its powered by batteries, there is an optional (110v) pack, maybe you can find a 220v. It as a co-axial 12.DC on the side for the pack. Fairly generic...

It is electric. I like the unit. My only issue is that the lid holders were missing and I have contacted the manufacturer without any resolution. Still waiting!!!

It's electrically charged. You have to plug it in. It does have a delightfully long cord however.
