The bottom picture on Amazon shows AC/DC & the mattress comes with an AC plug. Does anyone know how an DC could adapt to blow up this mattress?

Call the manufacturer....I am sure it is a very simple adapter...most durable mattress out there...does not stretch or split open like the Aero's that we have had...

Mine didn't have the ac/dc listing like it showed on the picture. I was getting ready to take it to the trash so I still had it to look at. Maybe this one pictured is of a newer model. Glad to see that you are a believer.

I wouldn't recommend getting this model. Ours ripped right near the ac plug and it can't be patched due to the location of the tear. It wasn't anything we did, i think it's just the way it is designed.

Well the instruction sheet says an AC/DC adapter is not included. I run it with batteries. Customer Service #888-999-4215 or here's the website: user guide www.gpx.com or e/m support: prodinfo@dpiinc.com The photos on the instruction sheet have just the tiny circular plug for into the machine with a regular wall plug. Sorry I can't be more help. Michele

There might be a way to do this but it would be difficult since the electric one is built in. It would require disassembly of the built in unit. If to be used where no electric outlet available such as camping its better to get a manually inflatable mattress.

Negative, this air mattress when plugged into an electrical outlet is self-sustaining. If fact, once you adjust your custom comfort level, it will auto-adjust silently in the background periodically as needed.

Both are ac/dc, but mine are always plugged in , less static interferance. I used the batteries before and didn't like it because it was too static. The batteries wore out in a few days.

DC stands for Direct Current. I'm not an electrian so I would suggest doing a google search. My concerns are with the EMF from AC electric blankets. Be sure to do some research before using a non DC (Low Voltage) blanket.

There is no AC to DC adapter on this unit. It plugs directly into a 110VAC receptacle.

Sorry for delay in responding to your question. My mattress has no way of removing its own pump and electrical outlet without tearing fabric, probably could modify it with lots of glue, and patches, but waste of time and money when it comes with a cord and self inflates because of small attached pump. Hope this helps. It is fast mine inflated within 10 minutes, on the 3 occasion s I used it.

I'm afraid I'm not very techy, but I can tell you what our adapter says: class 2 power supply; ACDC adapter; model PDUR35090-30; DC output 9V. I think I ordered what was suggested in the bed alarm's instructions, and it works fine.

Hi, Shirley. We pump up the mattress and leave it plugged in all night. I don't think you need to, though. We have never had a problem with the mattress leaking during the night; in fact, we had to let some of the air out the last time we used it because my husband filled it too full and it was too hard for him. After he released some of the air, the bed was fine. I think you'll be glad you purchased this item. We love ours!

Yes, mine came with a DC adapter (transformer) that plugs into an AC outlet.

The power source is 3 AA batteries. No AC plug. Don't bother buying it, tho - it was a piece of garbage. not enough air flow to actually play. we used it once and were done.

You will probably have to purchase an Inverter that changes DC to AC. It plugs in to the power port or cigarette lighter in your car and gives you a regular outlet. Very handy

Which ever way your room electric plug is handy to hook up to mattress pad. If the plug is at the foot of the bed, turn pad that way, visa versa. I found the cord running thru the pad very uncomfortable to sleep on, good luck.

Were you able to top it off with a foot pump or another battery operated one? I like the auto feature but sometimes electricty is not available. It looks like with the pull plug that you can manually inflate if you have to. Is this the case?

Thanks for the response. Actually, I found an electric mattress pad at my local Sleep Number store and it works great. You can't feel any of the wires and the transformer is completely silent.

I had the same issue with the unit i installed. I looked closer at the specs and realized it is a dc 12 volt unit. If you are using an ac transformer, it will not function correct.
