so, this product functions by batteries instead of plug?

No, it plugs into the wall and has a remote control and actually has 3 speed settings. As mentioned the range of rotation is very limited.

It plugs into the wall. The remote uses batteries if you want to use the remote. I've had this fan for at least a year now and have had no problems with it. Excellent buy.

No it does not. It plugs in the wall. It has a remote (like a tv) that takes batteries & can operate the fan.

It comes with an electrical cord. I'm not sure if it has a place for batteries. My son has it plugged in

No, you plug it in. It's a nice fan but like I said it really only has 1 setting =)

Good question! It is just a marketing word, I guess that what is battery operated can be advertised as electrical, which does not make any sense. It does not have a plug. It dispenses slowly and being short at one point you have to remove it to finish the water in the gallon container. The tera pump I had before instead was truly electric, with the plug, and it was working well till it stopped working, after one year, that is why I tried another one, but I by far prefer Tera and I will order another one of that.

No-It appears to work by an automatic switch. When plugged in battiers off-[unless you have rechargeable batteries-then they are charging]-other wise the regular batteries are bypassed when it is plugged in. Michael Barnes

Yes, it is designed to be plugged into the wall socket, not run on batteries normally.

No, you don't need to plug it in, it comes with a battery, that is how the light is on.

As far as I know, it only works while plugged in. At least that's how mine works.

You are right in strict technical language, but I am a practical person, so I referred to the power in the actual application: the battery operated dispenser does not have the greater power of a dispenser connected to an electrical plug. So my point is that a honest manufacturer should advertise the product exactly as it is, either battery powered or connected to electricity, as it makes a huge difference in performance.

It allows you to use a 9v device by plugging it into the wall, there fore no need for batteries. It is not a charger

I don't know what you mean by plug in in this device.It is battery operated.

well - it has a port for a plug in, so I went to Radio Shack and got what should have worked - and nope. So I would say no. It does run for a really long time on batteries though

It's a plug in only. I don't see anywhere there is a location for batteries.

yes, all of the functions work on batteries. It is on my desk w/o any power cord.

Hello Barbara,This plugs in and does need to have the switch continually held. That said I'm fairly happy with it and as I'm unlikely to know ahead of time when I need it prefer to not worry about the battery being dead.

Yes. MINE CAME WITH AN AC PLUG-IN ADAPTER. I find using batteries to be much easier.

yes that is the reason i bought it. it charges the battery and then you have to switch the batteries out off and on.

This device has a battery so you don't have to keep the power plugged in. Still though I wouldn't recommend this product.

Yes, it comes with a power cord and must be plugged in to function as it does not run off of batteries.
